(5) Finding Value

How has the senior project been helpful to you in your future endeavors?   Be specific and use examples.

The senior project in its entirety has been an overall amazing learning and growing experience. It pushed me out of my comfort zone and although I procrastinated on a few things it taught me about what kind of work ethics and study habits I need in order to succeed and do better in the future. For example, for some time I had procrastinated on finding mentorship and this really set me back as far as gathering information and broadening my knowledge on my topic. As a result of my procrastination I spend the very last months of school cramming on information and trying to grasp the understanding  that could only have been achieved through an extensive amount of time with mentorship.
