If you look at a students background, you can learn a lot about them. Their background shows how thrivers and divers are who they are. A person may come from low- income family and tries much harder to study to get into college, while a diver doesn't have to worry as much to get into college. Thrivers want to be intelligent and make a difference in the world to make their parents proud, while divers want to be successful and rich like their parents.

Conscientiousness is a trait that people to do things more carefully and watch what they are doing. As opposed to divers, they are not as careful and tend to be more disorganized. However, divers can do work effectively if they listen to when upcoming assignments are due and be prepared, but this is not the case. In college, my professors give me a lesson plan so that i complete my work on time, which is very effective and efficient. With all of these negative characteristics, how were divers able to graduate form high school?

Sometimes, it is not easy to come up with a study plan. There is simply no time or you have to many assignments. In my first few weeks of high school, I was prepared to finish all my assignments and study for any exams. Sooner or later though, I was drowning in college work that I couldn't come up with a schedule or find time to finish the assignments for each class.

Grades don't always demonstrate what you are good at. You may may be intelligent or have skills in a specific area that schools do not teach you. You could also be doing really well in one subject, while failing other subjects, which doesn't always show with your grades or GPA.

Going into college was hard for me because I had to make new friends and meet new professors. There was also more of a work load than in high school.

Is it possible for a country to cut the BRICS cable or to steal information from it? There was article published by CNN last year about an incident where a Russian submarine was found near a part of the cable around Cuba. This had sent the US into high alert over whether or not they were trying to spy on the US government. If there is no real global protection over the BRICS cable, what prevents a country from cutting these cables or potentially stealing information from them?

What does this mean for Britain since they are no longer apart of the European Union?
