OT Essay Update

Well, because I turned my essay for Anthropology in early, it was actually graded this morning!

In our school, we don't get letter grades, we have grading rubrics on everything, and we get number grades depending on many different things.

For the essay I showed you guys, I got a 60...


However, that is a 60 OUT OF 60 points so %100

Sounds good to me! Bryce

Good job!

Good work! Ron Mn

That's awesome, good work, and exhibition of your writing skills, the latter of which I firmly believe is a great thing to develop and use effectively in many areas of ones occupation and life in general.

Bryce, you are obviously an unusually-capable young man, and it is enjoyble to read accomplishments. I cannot resist making a belated comment about your earlier statement that you do not wish to attend college. I strongly urge you to reconsider that attitude. There is little doubt you will excel in any course of study you choose, unlike many young people for whom college is not a practical choice.

An advanced education will make you a better farmer, if that is what you wish to be. It is certainly among the most noble of professions. But an advanced education will allow you to be any number of other things, particularly in the event your farming aspirations are thwarted by illness, injury or economic disaster. You are young and strong, but you are not immune from these or a myriad of other potential set-backs. Success in life boils down to the number of choices a person has available to him at any given time; the less success, the fewer choices you have, and the more unpleasant they usually are.

You have plenty of time to set the course of your life. Do not fail to take advantage of any opportunities that can potentially serve you well as you progress through life. A young man of your potential should achieve it to the fullest.

Hey, wait a minute . . . are you doing forum stuff during class time?

Congrats!!!

Ya, usually!

I will usually do a class/subject, then check e-mail, YT, and the modding forums for my Farming Simulator. Just a few more great advantages of home schooling. Bryce

Way to go, Bryce!
Keep on with the good work.
