SMART Goals
ENG10-B31
First Term SY: 2014-2015

Name: Fermazi, Gabriel Dan F. Date: 25 July 2014
Type of Activity: Writing Assignment Prof. Aida Alfaro

1. Write down one of your SMART goals as a college student. My SMART goal as a college student is to finish college and graduate with a degree in Chemical Engineering. The reason for choosing this course is that I particularly like Chemistry and would like to work in the fields involving Chemistry. Furthermore, to study Chemical Engineering at M.I.T. will be do a tremendous amount of help to me.
2. Explain how this goal can be made:
a) Specific
To be specific about my goal, I want to fully graduate at M.I.T. with a degree in Chemical Engineering. As I have mentioned earlier, I have taken a liking to Chemistry, and furthermore, I achieved good grades in Chemistry during High school. If I do graduate, I will be able to get a job in such a diverse field of work.
b) Measurable
To measure the progress of this goal, it will be accomplished within 4 to 5 years. Within the course of each year, it will obviously become harder to achieve this goal, due to growing amount of subjects, projects, assignments and the like. To put certain points to check on the progress would be, finishing each year’s load of subjects.
c) Achievable
To achieve this goal, I have to study. As simple as it sounds, it is not simple in action, as I would need to be persistent & hardworking towards my studies. This will be very hard to achieve but it is worthwhile.
d) Realistic
Reason being for this goal to be very rewarding, is the widely open and diverse field of work I can be able to get into. Furthermore, in today’s day and age, there is a great need of engineers, and a greater need for Chemical Engineers. This suits me just fine, as I often think that I have an aptitude for Science.

    Success is a process of changeling obstacles. In order to succeed you must overcome these obstacles. Motivation is the driving force behind success, it is the entity that makes people do things they don’t want to. Studying is key to success, there is a high correlation between studying and success. Serval studying skills such as pre-test taking and taking clearer notes can put you on course with your goals.
