SSC1 Done, onto SST1

I am sorry to say that I failed the initial SSC1 by 3 questions. It was a bonus  class from my future term, so it did not hurt my current term progress. I had already made my goal for this current term, so as  my student mentor said "no harm, no foul", we'll get it next time. The next time rolled around last Wednesday and I passed it with flying colors. Fortunately one of the course mentors sent me several Power Point presentations that were targeted to my weak areas. Nature versus Nurture, state vs nation-state, biomes and scientific methods. I actually read a couple of the chapters that he suggested which helped to cement the ideas they were trying to get across. It worked, I felt more comfortable taking it this time. I did underestimate it because it was only 1 credit. The course mentor chided me for that comment stating it is actually a 3 credit class with 3 parts. The SSC1 is the final exam and the SST1 is the 2 part essay.
I think I have my choices narrowed down now for my SST1 essay regarding nation, state, and nation-state. So, I will close for now and start typing away so I can upload my paper to the Task Stream gods!
All the best everyone.
