Today I hadn't heard back from the director of the DePaul PLuS program
about our first visit. Since it had been a couple of working days and
a weekend since I had responded to his message I called him. He
seemed a bit like he had not reviewed the times I selected. We talked
a bit about the times and he said that tomorrow or Wednesday would be
fine. So we plan to meet tomorrow. I am a bit apprehensive about
this arrangement but what choice do I have. I don't feel like I have
had good results from working through programs like this. It is
because my personal results depend on day to day factors. Working on
rigid time frames hasn't been very productive because of the hit or
miss nature of getting program help on a fixed time frame. I also
seem to always have better techniques of learning. It is a white box
advantage over a black box thing.
Today I spent some time looking at more zed. I am re-reading a number
of chapters to prepare for the test.
I wanted to be prepared with my objections to the testing
situation but decided to wait and see what the director has to say.
