During Phase 1 of IS101-3003/5, Spring 2026 I felt I did not apply myself as much as I should of. Due to personal events, I had been focused on either that or other classes. I had to catch up toward the deadline to ensure I was prepared for my MO-110 word certification exam. In the future I would like to prioritize IS101 and ensure that I focus more on doing my assignments. I feel dedicating more time to assignments and due dates will keep me on track to success.
Since I have already completed the MO-110 Word certification exam and passed, I will discuss how I prepared for it. I took time to study each project and module in LabSim before actually taking the exam. I focused on the portions that were giving me trouble and went back to watch the videos in LabSim to give me clarity on what I was doing wrong.
I have completed an 8 week course of English 102 with a 94 so I feel good about that. I am continuing to succeed in college and ensuring I complete my assignments on time. IS101 seems to be my most challenging course for some reason. I don't like check list and IS101 seems to be a lot of those. For me to succeed I will likely backtrack to week one and check every list of assignments that I need to complete to catch up and succeed.
