Comparison

I think that when you learn only by the facts, like stated in Charles Dickens' mid-nineteenth century novel Hard Times, it eliminates possibility. Also it is hard to determine what a fact even is. Katherine Watson's way of teaching basically taught the girls to basically embrace that there is more than what it seems. Which lets people think on there own and make their own opinions.

Mona Lisa Smile

My favorite part of the movie was when Bettie finally filed for divorce and stood up to her mother and stopped painting by the numbers. I actually really enjoyed the movie and what it taught. Although the part I didn't like was how Joan didn't go and become a lawyer it was kind of unexpected. That being said I did like how Joan turned it around onto Katherine and kind of made her rethink some things about herself and how she was sort of being hypocritical.

Mona Lisa Smile

I think that Mona Lisa Smile will be about the woman who is played by Julia Roberts empowering the women in her class to be more than just some man's wife. Also to make goals for themselves and to break what is "set" for you. To realize that it is important to set goals for yourself and be your own person. I think that it will end with the girl getting into law school and everyone ending up doing something outside of their marriage.

Exams

I think that high school exams are much easier because teachers tend to remind you to study and basically hold your hand along the way, with the exception of few. Whereas college professors give you a syllabus at the beginning of the semester and hardly remind you of assignments due let alone exams days. How to prepare for these exams would to start studying EARLY! Don't wait until a couple days before and try to cram everything all at once.
