In what ways did your prior educational experience prepare for higher education?

 Questions to consider:  What kind of student are you?  Are you the same kind of student that you were in the past, assuming that you have changed?  Are you disciplined?  Are you a self-starter?  What kind of learning environment best suits you as a learner and contributor in the classroom?  Is there a particular teaching style that appeals to you the most?  What was your least favorite experience in a classroom (it does not have to be an English class)?  What was your favorite example?
