Write five SMART goals for yourself with regard to your life. Include some that are academic and some that are personal or professional.

What will be an ideal response?


SMART goals are specific (rather than vague), measurable (quantifiable), attainable (challenging but realistic and attainable), results-oriented (support the vision), and have target dates (deadlines).

Each individual student’s SMART goals will vary. Here are two possibilities:

By the end of the year, I will find (and get hired for) a job that pays more than minimum wage.

Next term, I want to raise my GPA from a 2.9 to a 3.1. To do that, I will need to get all As and Bs, and no more than one C next term. To accomplish that goal, I will carefully choose my courses so that I take no more than one particularly challenging class; and I will also find at least one class that might be an “easy A” for me. I plan to increase the time I spend studying by 40%; I’ll do that by turning off the computer and watching fewer videos on YouTube.
