I was honestly quite nervous when entering this course. Beginning in around 2018 I had been dealing with various types of mental health issues around my university classes, and once COVID-19 caused a country-wide lockdown I had to switch to online learning. Owing to this change I decided to take a semester off from Engineering Studies. Afterwards, I began my year abroad in Germany, where I focused on German Studies rather than Engineering. I began this course after I returned. Due to these reasons, I hadn't studied Engineering in nearly two years before beginning this course. Due to the level of technical background involved in courses prior to this course, I was nervous that I wouldn't perform well due to rustiness in Engineering knowledge. 

While I was very nervous, I was also very comfortable communicating these issues with my professors as well as classmates, and the community was more than supportive in helping me through this course. Throughout this course, I had gradually improved in my engineering and mathematics skills to the point where I could rather easily follow the while refreshing on knowledge from previous years. Although some topics were harder to understand than others, I feel I performed very well in this course and perhaps better than many other courses I've taken in chemical engineering. I feel that this will allow me to apply various aspects of chemical production in future endeavors, especially through developed knowledge of ASPEN programming and various unit operations thereof. I don't feel that I would've done anything differently while taking this course. I'm pretty satisfied with my performance and I hope my presented work in the learning outcomes of this course reflects that.
