The experiences in which I have had whilst
taking the extended degree course have greatly developed my skills throughout
the year. Prior to attending university, I was always someone whom would leave
tasks/work till very late before completing it. Eventually I found that in some
ways I thrived under the pressure of having to complete work on a short time
scale and became confident in my ability to do so. However, after continuously
completing my work in this way, myself and my teachers felt/noticed that the
quality of work produced was not matching my ability. I believe that my
organisation and timing did have an impact over my previous years of education.
Since coming to university I opened myself up to changing my previous ways and
many of the seminars and lectures taught me how to better manage my education
and even personal life.
