Thats it? No insight, or personal wisdom? Was your post just a form of self-therapy? 😕

originally, i also wanted to add the following, but for some reason in didn't get posted....

i made most of my mistakes in my early college years.... (due to various reasons)... but for some reason, afterwards, i never made the same mistakes again... i think the same holds true for many other things in life...

 

[nikolai521]

Nope. I like to make the same mistakes over and over again

 

[leechy]

i've made some... i've learned from them, but it's damn hard to stop making them over and over 😉

 

[bewitched1081]

i learn a lot from watching other people make mistakes

 

[entropy]

it is interesting how different people responded..........

i dont make mistakes.

when you can make a mistake, and still get by, or still be ok, its a dangerous thing...yeah those mistakes keep happening even though you know better.

laziness isn't a mistake its more like a cancer, you think you have beat it into remission but it always comes back

i think this is much much more complicated than yes/no, depending on implications of mistakes (i.e. you can make a mistake and things still turn out o.k.), severity, how often you make them, etc.

nevertheless, the most important thing is to learn from mistakes, no matter what parameters, IMO

Yeah. Never, ever, ever get involved in a land war in Asia.

yes, i will now listen to upperclassmen if they tell me to avoid a teacher or a class, because i can't afford to let my grades suffer. I'm only taking classes that are relatively easy (unless it's a pre-med req) and looking at the median score of that class in past years. thankfully, there are enough classes that i like that are relatively fun and easy.

I'm now taking classes that will balance the low grade pre-med classes. so yes, i definitely have learned from my mistakes first year.
