Step 3: Develop your plan!
Write down your most important goal for the semester that you return to Texas Tech. Using the
solutions that you came up with, list the steps you will take to reach your goal. Remember your goal
should be SMART.
Specific – Make your goal as specific as possible. If you want to raise your GPA, set your goal
for a specific number.

“more” mean? 1 hour a week, 2 hours a week? Make sure you can measure whether you
achieved your goal or not.
Attainable – Do the math. Can you actually achieve your goal? Is it mathematically possible for
you to achieve the GPA you want in one semester? If the answer is no, you need to reevaluate.
Realistic – Be honest with yourself and know your abilities.
Timely – Set a timeline for reaching your goal.
