I was glancing through various colleges and got some answers concerning the University of Bristol. After consulting with my career adviser about it, she proposed that I investigate it, as Economics was something which I was fascinated about and which would help me with narrowing down what I want to study in the future. Henceforth I took the taster lecture for the Undergraduate program of Economics at the University of Bristol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning Outcomes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning Outcome 2- Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were numerous difficulties and challenges that I faced during the experience. One of them was managing my time effectively, the timing of the taster lecture was during my school classes, so I needed to either miss the end of the class or the start of the taster lecture and there were times when we have extra slots or assessment were I need to miss the vast majority of the lecture. The answer to the issue was to watch the part of the recording that I used to miss. The other difficulty that I faced was understanding their accent, their accent was slightly different than mine so it was difficult to interpret what the professor was speaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning Outcome 4 \u2013 Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experiences<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Showing Commitment and determination towards the CAS Experience helped me gain a greater understanding of macroeconomics where I figured out how the government calculates GDP. Although the lecture was 6 hours long divided into 3 sessions it was toward the end of the school where I typically was exhausted and oftentimes I didn&#8217;t want to go yet the commitment and perseverance helped me in gaining new insights and knowledge about macroeconomics. Perseverance and commitment also assisted me in narrowing down what I want to study further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"502\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-574.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-574.png 502w, https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-574-217x300.png 217w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 502px) 100vw, 502px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1023\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-575.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-575.png 1023w, https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-575-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2022.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-575-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The prospect of What I will accomplish in the near future used to eat me.
