As most of you know,the first year of university is always the hardest to adapt to.In addition to taking care of yourself,making new friends,learning how to get around campus,and schoolwork can sometimes be too much to bear.
I would like to attend medical school after my four-year undergraduate.It is well-known that medical schools are very competitive and require extremely high marks.I had always known that I was meant for medical school and worked hard all throughout high school.I engaged in life sciences and knew that I wanted to do a double major in neuroscience (神经科学) and psychology,but of course,I wasn’t so fond of the preconditions to get to that stage.I had to take math and physics in my first year.
So after the choke I call the first term,I looked back on my grades and found that I had never seen numbers like this before.I really didn’t think they were possible.I had heard that medical schools liked to see an upward trend,so I was discouraged and hurt,but tried not to think about it.Having your grades taken away from you when that was all you had was a huge thing I had to overcome — I defined my worth by how “smart” I was and getting past that mindset was the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
After I saw my grades,I realised the mistake I made—taking a bunch of unnecessarily challenging courses.At the end of my second term,my grades weren’t as high as I wanted them to be,but I accepted it.I knew that there were reasons for the differences between individuals,
but I still saw a huge improvement in my marks from the first term.I had enjoyed my time in my second term and even though I wasn’t where I wanted to be,it had nothing to do with my place in the university.It was very eye-opening and taught me what I needed to do in order to achieve MY best — not what everyone else considered to be the best.
I’m now taking a summer school course and my marks are incredibly better than what I was getting during my first year of school.Though I had a rough start,I’m sure my lessons and new attitude will carry me much farther than just to medical school.
(　　)4.Why did the author want to take a double major
[A] Because he/she liked the two majors better.
[B] Because he/she was preparing himself/herself for his/her goal.
[C] Because he/she tried to prove his/her academic ability.
[D] Because he/she decided to challenge himself/herself in university.
(　　)5.How did the author feel when reviewing his/her grades after the first term
[A] Satisfied. [B] Surprised. [C] Calm. [D] Angry.
(　　)6.In the second term,what did we know about the author
[A] The author accepted the grades and did nothing.
[B] The author tried to learn more necessary courses.
[C] The author viewed learning from a different angle.
