What is the most meaningful lesson you learned through your studies?
Accomplishing your goals takes a lot of work. You want to give up, but you just can't because you don't want to fail. Sometimes it takes every ounce of you to keep going.

Don't let your GPA define you. Everyone has their own talents, yours might not be math or science, it maybe English or PE. Enjoy what you're good at; accept the challenge of doing the hard things. Show yourself you can.
