Marks in graduate school

Posted by Elliswordpress on December 11, 2013

So I got my grades back for this term and I got the A grade across the board! Really really pleased with this. Its been awhile since I’ve really felt competitive in graduate school- especially in our program where the people entering are already competitive and the entrance requirements makes the competition in class so much worse. I don’t remember what the entrance for the clinical program was for my year, but I know the counseling psychology program had an incredible 3.93 competitive GPA entrance and these are the people I am constantly vying against for grades here. So suffice to say its been a bit of a slump for me and I’ve kind of accepted that sitting at the opposite end of the bell curve compared to my senior undergraduate days was the norm. So getting these grades this term? Eff yeah. I don’t feel so bad that I just bought a boatload of cool stuff and spoiled myself rotten now. I rewarded myself with a cold coke today. I’m pretty happy with all this considering I’m juggling nearly 0.75 FTE, being a fiance and being a full time grad student and I’m going hard in the gym. I’m totally puffing my chest out but I need to. Its been crazy.
