S.M.A.R.T Goal Questionnaire

Goal

Achieve straight A* for my A-level examination

1.Specific. What will the goal accomplish? How and why will it be accomplished?

By having this goal accomplished, I will be able to get into a good university to continue my studies. This goal will be accomplished if I work hard and do my revision and past year papers everyday consistently.

Grades I get for my exams, semester exams, topical tests and assignments.

3.Achievable. Is it possible? Have others done it successfully? Do you have the necessary knowledge, skills, abilities, and resources to accomplish the goal? Will meeting the goal challenge you without defeating you.

It is possible and I’ve seen others done it successfully. Besides, I also think that I have the necessary knowledge, skills, abilities and resources, I just need to go deeper and brush up my skills to accomplish my goals. I am not sure whether the goal will defeat me in the future, but I will not give up till the very end because it is all worth it.

4.Results-focused. What is the reason, purpose, or benefit of accomplishing the goal? What is the result (not activities leading up to the result) of the goal?

To get into good university and be a successful person.

Be prepared for AS exams during August 2015 and A2 exams during February 2016.
