I need to take a Cornerstone class? Are you serious? This was the worst reaction I had at first. At the beginning I felt that this class would be a waste of time and money. When classes began, I would go into this class with a very negative attitude. But then as the time passed, my way of thinking began to change. This Cornerstone class taught me different things that will help me in life. At first we began to learn about our personality type. This is definitely the topic that really began to influence my life and way of thinking. The next topic that caught my interest was time management. The last topic that has been influential this semester is test taking skills.

I had the advantage to take numerous self-assessments tests to learn something about myself, that could benefit me in my personal growth and career aspirations.

I also liked taking the assessments. The career assessments are a great assessment to take for ourselves and also for students who are looking to enter a career. It is great that the career assessment confirmed my beliefs that working as a counselor or in the education field matches my interest. I can’t believe that the unemployment rate is so high. I’m sure this class has prepared you to help the students with their career and college decisions. The websites were very helpful and I will be using them in the future. It was great working with you in this class.

As I walked into the first Cornerstone class of the semester on August 20, 2015, I believed it was going to be a breeze. I asked myself “What could I possibly obtain from this?”, and truthfully I assumed the answer would be, slim to none. However, my expectations could not have been any further from the reality. During the Cornerstone course, I was able to attain certain assets that I did not already possess. Out of the many topics and ideas discussed throughout the course, the three most influential have been: True Colors the Go, Picture, Scribe and Dr. Tawils’ speeches about life.

The personality assessment was a very strategic test that made one self understand new ideas of how one should perceive his or her own personality towards their ideal career path.
