<p>This is how I see it, you learn a lot from your failure. You can see you weak points and adjust yourself accordingly. I can cruise through easy classes with an A and barely do anything. But through taking AP courses (9 through out my high school career) I have discovered so much about myself and have made changes. You wont truly know who you are until you are under pressure; when you go in fight or flight mode. I failed my firs AP course because I was so use to not doing much and succeeding, I learned that I am a really bad procrastinator and that I lack motivation, aggression, and grit as well as organization. Over the years I’ve made efforts to correct this. And with all the rigorous classes I’ve taken I feel I’m pretty ready for college I can handle a lot ( especially after having to take 4 AP exams in 2 weeks). Moreover, don’t you want to know what you can accomplish? don’t let fear deter you from progressing as a person. The things we are afraid to do are often times the things we must. Colleges like to know that you can handle a lot and that you are committed. </p>
