I just got my first reaction paper back from my Social Welfare History/Policy class. Needless to day, I bombed it something terrible. It is no surprise that I am not a conceptual / theoretical / analytical / critical thinker. Unfortunately, I best get with it because critical thinking is EVERYTHING in Grad school. You have beyond common knowledge and are expected to supply your own thoughts/arguments with appropriate evidence, of course. I can do that on a semi-ok scale, but it's not good enough yet. I also suck at writing and my thoughts just don't come out properly. It really blows and I REALLY hope that I get better. *le sigh*
Off to do homework...
