2. Expectation Introduction
Purpose: Compare the amount of time I spend studying for each class.
What class requires the most studying?
What class I should be studying more for?
Am I studying the appropriate amount of time
for my course load?
Expectation
My main objective for this project is to learn my study habits. I want to acquire knowledge to compared this quarter’s study habits with my overall grade at the end of the quarter. I believe that the IME 301 class is the one that takes most of my studying time, the weekly homework and weekly quizzes take up a good amount of my studying time.
With the help of the data collected I will also be able to learn which class I should be spending more time studying for.
I expect to find that I spend most of my study time on IME 301

I recorded my data over a period of five weeks. This table shows a breakdown of the total hours I studied per day over the five week period. The table also shows the average amount of time that I spent studying on an specific day.

5. This graphs shows a break down of the amount of time I studied for every class. This is a good way of comparing the amount of time I spend studying for a particular class. As I predicted the class that takes the most amount of time studying is IME 301 and the class that I studied the least for is IME 239

6. Conclusion
Class requiring the most amount of time to study was IME 301
On Average the day that I spend the most of amount of time studying was Monday and Friday
I need to spend more time studying for a few of my classes
In Conclusion: I was able to acquire knowledge on my studying habits.
As I predicted the class that I studied for the most during the five week period in which I recorded my data was my IME 301 class.
I was surprised to learn that the days that on average I spend the most of amount of time studying was tied between Monday and Friday. I do not have classes on Fridays so I assume that I was not going to be spending that much time studying
I also learned that I need to spend a few more hours studying for all of my classes. I think that the more time I spend studying the better my grade will be.
Thank You
