Midterm Has Ended

It is that time of the year, where we have passed the midway point of the semester. For the students, it is time to evaluate where we are in completing individual deliverables by the end of the semester. For some they are right on track while others are a little behind schedule. As students, we are not in panic mode at this time, but soon deliverables will be due and stress levels will rise. It is important that all of us maintain some type of individual schedule.

For the seniors that will be graduating this fall, it is time to see what we need to complete to graduate. In addition to school work, some of us are taking the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam on Saturday. Passing this test is one of the many steps to becoming a Professional Engineer. The test is eight hours long and staying focused throughout the exam will be challenging. So, it is important to have a successful week of studying for the exam and completing the required school work at the same time.

The coming weeks will fly by and staying on top of tasks will be challenging. Everyone has a different way of tackling the challenges ahead, but we all have each other for support. The challenge of finishing the semester in time is something that some of us have completed many times, but it is always interesting. For the Third generation, it will be a challenge but they will be successful with a little guidance from the seniors.

To top it off, many of the fall graduates are looking for jobs, and the juniors are looking for internships for the summer. This is another time concern we have to contend with. All of wish we could have 30 hours in a day, but we know that will never happen. To be successful the students will have to track their progress and be efficient with the remaining time.
