A United Goal!

Studying for Chemistry is a community. A shared interest to prepare, be prepared and understand the material for an exam or lab is what makes this a community. An increase in knowledge, understanding and over grade is what holds the group together. Shared interests would be striving to do well in chemistry and knowing group study has benefits for students. A need is present to discus material in great depth outside of class. Self values of wanting to be successful and determination are shared among the group.

I am almost a full time study partner in my Chemistry community. I am an employee of a bank that does not allow much flexibility to work hours, which limit my group study time. My study group knows I am a member and accepts that I will be late to some weekly group sessions. This allows both the group and I understanding to how I fit with the community. Knowing the payoff is a clearing understanding to the material and accomplishment of a good grade are what keeps me committed to my study group. Even being strapped with my considered extra time I devote what I can to being part of my Chemistry community knowing the pay off will be success.
