100 Speed Level Passed!

I finally found out today (Sunday) that my 100 QA test from last Thursday was a pass.
I knew it, knew it, knew it, but needed to wait until the professor was back from vacation to get the offiicial news.
And what wonderful news to receive! That means that I am officially out of the 100 level tests and on to 120!
I was absolutely convinced that I had passed an earlier 100 QA test on Monday, but ended up failing 4 errors over the limit. That was a lesson in not getting too cocky, indeed!

As with the previous level, I'll do a handy-dandy breakdown again of the pass dates, just for old time's sake:
80 Lit -- May 15, 2013
100 JC -- June 6, 2013
100 QA -- June 13, 2013

And mind you, there were nearly two solid weeks of vacation in between, so one can only imagine if I hadn't had that time off to "slack." As a reminder, imagine how those three weeks in August will be!! Thanks to Stenograph U, though, I have a feeling that I'll be able to stay sharp.

My goal for the end of month was to pass all of my 100 tests, and so I still have two more weeks left in the month to set a new goal. Let see...I should try passing the 100 Lit test. Yes, that's right.

Surprisingly enough, it is interesting to note that two of my 100 level tests were passed through Stenograph U! I hope that this does not mean I am lulled into the belief that only Stenograph U is the way to go!
And while we're on the subject of goals, I should also aim to pass a few more 100-level tests with a decent return grade.

Crazy, I'll now be sitting in at the 140-level class in order to focus more intensively on the 120 tests. I should also mention that last week, I did an optional three-voice 120 test just for kicks, and completed it with only--gasp!--80 errors! That may seem like a doozy, but hey, it's only in the double-digits.

Tomorrow, June 17 is also the first day of my academic classes (Business Law and Concepts of Criminal Law) so that should be interesting. Just reading the syllabus for one makes it seem overwhelming, but you know how that first day of class always makes you think, "How on earth am I going to manage it?!?!" but I'm confident that I simply will.

Now, hopefully I can just get that one textbook off of Craigslist for $25... That'd be real nice.
I really should write up a blog about my new laptop that I got! Perhaps next week.
