Do you think you can achieve Dean's List for this semester?

The title above seems so hard to be answered, huh? I think it is harder than final exam questions *hahha*.. What do you guys think? Do you think you can achieve Dean's List for this semester?

For me, the first semester is the parameter what will we achieve for the next semester. As this is the first semester, everybody still has the spirit to study hard. So, the dean's list seems not too hard to be achieved, as long as we keep the good performance during the semester.

Everyone always hope and pray to get Dean's List every semester. Besides to make our own selves happy and self's satisfaction, we also want to make our parents feel proud towards us.

This semester I have set the goal to achieve the Dean's List. I try every exercises that given besides searched for extra exercises to improve my knowledge and calculation skill of one's subject. During tests and quizzes, some questions I can answer and  some I can't. So, I just leave it on my luck and hoping to get best marks and try my bests and give out all my efforts for the next tests and this coming exams.

Oh I think I have to study harder after this (or study smarter?) (^_^)

Wish me luck readers!

How to Get on Dean's List

Dean’s List, as the Wiki describes, is an honorary roll assigned to the top students. The GPA cut-off to get into the Dean’s List varies across faculties and academic terms. If I were to give a ballpark estimate, your GPA has to be at least 3.6 or 4.5 (i.e. average of A- and A for all subjects) and above to be considered on the Dean’s List. If students were more competitive in a particular term, the cut-off will be higher.

To get on Dean's List, there are several tips to follow

1. Define the goal. Typically the standard for acceptance to the Dean's List is full-time status and a 3.5 grade point average (GPA).If your goal is to achieve Dean's List honors throughout your college career, you must meet the requirements each semester.
2. Engage in class discussions. Share knowledge. Ask questions. These strategies will improve your understanding and provide valuable feedback to your lecturers. Participatory involvement is key to learning.
3. Examine the syllabus. Most lecturers post their syllabi prior to the first class session.The syllabus will describe the contents of the course in detail and allow you to carefully plan your course load. The syllabus is designed for your success.
4. Engage with faculty and understand the system.
5. Prioritize. College or university responsibilities should come first. Carefully integrate other responsibilities around your college/university needs. Your priorities should entail reading, studying, attending class, listening, participating, taking notes and reviewing. Diligent time management will be necessary, but with it your college/university experience will be both fun and rewarding. Making the Dean's List will instill great habits and improve your chances on the competitive employment scene.
