Growth Mindset

I thought the growth mindset was really interesting. I have never heard of Carol Dweck before. I can really relate to what she talked about. Usually when I get test grades back and they aren’t great, it really just knocks down my confidence and makes me want to give up, especially if I studied really hard for that exam. If I grew up with that growth mindset I feel like I would enjoy challenges more. Challenges usually scare me because I am afraid of failing and I hate how it makes me feel. One class that I am taking this year is Intro to Neurobiology and I am kind of nervous. I really hope I enjoy the class and not just be worried about grades the whole semester because there are only two exams.
