QUESTION 1:
What are some of the challenges you have faced or are currently facing in
your studies? Can you describe a specific situation or situations where you
encountered a setback in your academic journey? (10)
In my studies, challenges often arise when I encounter complex concepts that
require deep understanding or when I'm faced with a significant workload and tight
deadlines. Sometimes, I struggle with time management, trying to balance different
subjects or projects effectively.
One specific situation that comes to mind is when I was working on a research
project that involved analyzing a large dataset. I encountered setbacks when I
realized that the dataset was incomplete and contained errors, which compromised
the integrity of my analysis. It was frustrating because I had already invested a
considerable amount of time in data cleaning and preliminary analysis. However, I
learned the importance of thoroughly vetting data sources and conducting robust
quality checks before proceeding with analysis.
Another challenge I've faced is overcoming self-doubt and imposter syndrome,
especially when tackling advanced topics or working alongside peers who seem
more knowledgeable. It can be daunting to push through these feelings of
inadequacy, but I've learned to embrace them as part of the learning process and
seek support from mentors and peers when needed. Overall, these challenges have
helped me develop resilience, problem-solving skills, and a deeper understanding
of my field.

you believe have contributed to your resilience in overcoming the challenges
you described in Question 1? (10)
