A specific goal that I want to complete by the end of this term is to apply to graduate school. How do I make a concrete plan for them. How will this goal be measured? In other words, how will you know when you have reached it? Is this goal realistically attainable? What is this goal relevant to (e.g. career, education)? Why do you want to achieve this goal? When do you want to have reached this goal (your deadline)
