Learning GIS, or not

After a week of working on my GIS assignment I believe that I am finally getting the hang of the basic applications. The GIS software does not appear to me to be very user friendly. At the moment I am not able to tranform shapes to shapes that are contained within a shapefile which is what I want to do. I'm not sure how people go about cropping maps but using the ArcGIS software it seems to be impossible. I just hope I can learn enough about how to use it to pass. That's my aim now.
