Season 2 Week 3

-

Reflection

This week I finished the second testing out of the three for gmetrix. I finished it with a 925 and since I got a 950 on the first one from last week that means I am ready to take the certification test. I think I will be taking it next Friday. Compared to the first test this one only took the one try and I got it all done in class. So that shows me that since i'm taking these a week apart I actually learned them and not just memorized the answers. 

Success

I would call this week the most success week so far. I passed the second test easily the first time so i'm sure that i've learned the program. I feel that I had a good understanding and none of the questions really caught be off guard and I knew how to do majority of them

Obstacles/Problems

I did not really run into any problems expect for the 3 question I got wrong. With those 3 questions they were just stupid mistakes that I went back to correct and not stuff I did not know how to do. When I take the real certification I will take it slow to make sure I don't make stupid mistakes. 

Plan for next week

My plan for next week is to just take my certification test and pass it.

Thoughts and Feelings

This week I felt very confident while doing the test and before submitting it I felt like I passed. In terms of the certification I feel like I will pass it because in past certifications I struggled even more with gmetrix and did pass those.

Mentor

I met with my mentor this week to talk about how my project is going. I first told him that I was taking the certification next week but he has not actually certified in it and that he just uses it for fun. He could not give me a lot of help when it comes to the questions about using the program but could help me with written ones. The 2 major written questions are about different cuts and about different tools. Since I have not actually used these tools it is kinda hard to understand them but he helped explain them to me.

Reflection This week I did my first test for gmetrix and scored an 800 (80%). Considering that on most first test I get a 600-700 and this is a week after all the trainings, I could call that a very good score. Also while doing it I felt like I was going to get a 500-600 but looking back and after doing the review it was fairly easy.  Success With my 800 on my first tests I would call that a good success. Going forward I am very confident that I will be able to certify based on how the trainings and now the first testing went. Like I said on the first tests the usually are 600-700 and go up from their after the second or third test, so I think it will take me 1 or 2 more tests before I get 900. This being considered I think that it will take me the next 2-4 work days to complete the gmetrix side of certifying. After doing all of those I plan on taking the certification as soon as possible. Obstacles/problems Other than a few questions I ran into no problems this we...

Reflection This week basically consisted of me trying to get used to using premier pro against since it has been like 3 weeks. This was unsurprising to me so I decided to do another training instead of trying to test again and most likely fail. This proved to be a good idea since I did have to use more hints than before but by the end I felt like I remembered most of what I needed to. So going forward I think I am in fine in terms of meeting a deadline for getting my certification. Success I was pretty successful going through the training test with the further going in the more I started remember. By the end I felt like I could go back through and get majority of the questions right without hints. Obstacles/Problems I did not run into any notable issues this week other than the odd question that took my a few tries. Plans for next week Next week I plan on going through and (hopefully) passing 1 of the 3 tests. I am unsure of which one I want to take but it will most...
