What do you expect out of this course? - What I expect out of this course is to gain better writing, and grammar skills. As well as How to use pre-writing activities better, and not make as much spelling and grammar mistakes. I really don't like writing very much so I'm looking to enjoy it more as well as enjoy reading more because I don't like reading that much either. In the past I would hate English class so I'm also hoping to enjoy English class more. That's really all I'm expecting to get out of this course
What skills do you want to learn? - Well the skills I want to learn is like I said up above in the first question is to gain better writing and grammar skills. Also how to plan out my essay's better and be more prepared before I write my essay's. I also want to learn how not to make as much punctuation mistakes, because I really always mess that part of my writing up alot. Those are the skills I really want to obtain in English class.
What are your strengths in English? - I would say my strentghs in English would be I use good word choice for the most part in my writing. I am hard worker and even though I don't like English that much I will put in a good effort to try to make it enjoyable for myself. I would say another strength of mine would be I'm a fast reader so I could go through a book in like a couple of day maybe a week. Those I would say are my strengths in English.
What are your weaknesses? - I would say my major weaknesses in English would be I don't comprehend some reading material or just work in general, as fast as others. I rush through my work sometimes which hurts my grade, just to get the work done so I can do stuff I want to. Lastly I would say my biggest weakness is my spelling isn't always good, and getting my thoughts out on to the paper when I have to write something. Those would be my weaknesses in English.

Scruples: Macbeth
1. Your car will soon need a new transmission. Do you sell it without informing the buyer?
I wouldn't sell the car to the buyer without informing him/her, that the car soon needed a new transmission because, it could lead to me getting sued by the person buying the car if I don't tell them the car needs a new transmission, and they buy it and the car breaks down the person I sold it too is going to be pretty pissed off at me and may sue me for lieing about the car.
2. You are drafted to fight in a war you consider unjust. Do you refuse and risk prison?
Well I would rather fight in the war even though I wouldn't want too I would rather serve my country and know I died protecting millions and millions of my fellow Americans then go to jail and just rot away my life in a prison block/cell.
3. A friend wants to copy and swap some expensive computer software with you. You know it's illegal. Do you swap?

6. You are shaken up on an auto accident. A lawyer could get you a large settlement if you exaggerate the extent of your injuries. Do you do so?
It would be tempting but, I wouldn't lie about something like that and pretty much rob somebody else of their money, for probably an honest mistake during a car accident to me that's just not fair to the other person I would be getting the settlement from
7. You have been attending classes all year. An acquaintance, who rarely shows up, asks to photocopy your notes, do you consent?
No because I could get in serious trouble for that and end up failing the class that the notes are fr because some person who rarely shows come's to class and wants to pass the class for whatever reason, I'm not going to jeopardize my chance to pass a class for someone else
