I’m most proud of my two terms as ASB Director of Communications, the student spokesperson for the ASB and faculty. The job demands proficiency in graphic design, public speaking, and time management; responsibilities include creating posters, broadcasting PSAs, commentating class competitions, and sending weekly emails to an audience of 1600 students. I’ve led two ASB committees to coordinate our school’s Stanford Blood Drive and FairTrade Initiative. I’m also the go-to guy who answers all students’ general questions. How many times a week does an email from a complete stranger pop up in the inbox?
I believe the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Science, and the Arts is the right place to continue my studies, because I love how the classes are based on the U of A academic system and that ASMSA offers an opportunity to obtain advanced college level knowledge before high school graduation. That being said, ASMSA still has a college life atmosphere which I think prepares the students to be more adjusted to what real college will be like. I also enjoy the fact that your professors are eager to help at almost any given time. On top of that, ASMSA will teach me viable skills like researching skills, time management skills, and self-discipline, also it will give me the great privilege of graduating with at least 30 concurrent hours which will
I believe ASMSA is the right place for me to continue my studies. ASMSA will offer me many challenges that I am excited to overcome. I do not feel like I am challenged enough, so I will be looking forward to having these challenges. Also, I believe that ASMSA will provide me an environment that will be beneficial not only to my educational performance but also my life beyond High School. I believe that ASMSA will prepare me for college, as well as assist me in harnessing my skills and utilizing my interests so that I will lead a successful and happy life.
In addition, I like the fact that the class size is small which will enable me to better connect and build strong relationships with colleagues and faculty
I feel that ASMS could assuage my fears of not being ready for college. Furthermore, I believe that ASMS
As an individual, I have always aimed to achieve superior accomplishments. Admission to the Illinois Math and Science Academy (IMSA) is one of such primary goals I hope to attain in my high school years. There will be so many new opportunities that unfold with acceptance to a school of such a high caliber. I will gain positive characteristics, which will allow me to take bigger strides to become more successful in life. Not only will I profit from attending this school, but I will also contribute to and enhance the school with a richness that is special to me.
I began my education at Stephen F. Austin State University, which was founded as a teacher’s college in 1923. That is why I chose SFASU because I wanted to teach children, plus I wanted to concentrate on teaching them to read. I received my B.S. in Elementary Education and Generic Special Education in 1985. I concentrated on working with the at-risk population and began my journey as an educator in January 1986. I quickly realized that I had a thirst for knowledge and set a goal to continue my education until one day I would receive my doctorate in education.
My admission to the Coast Guard Academy Scholars Program at Marion Military Institute (MMI) has provided me the exceptional academic opportunity to prepare me for success at the Academy this fall. MMI has emphasized the importance of skills such as teamwork, communication, and time-management in its curriculum. I consider these core competencies to be vital to be an effective future cadet and commissioned officer. By stressing the importance of teamwork and communication during my orientation and academic study, my fellow classmates and I forged a strong, collegial bond that will endure through the Academy and our future careers as officers. Learning the importance of teamwork and interpersonal communication helped us become more comfortable with our roles and responsibilities confiding with each other to help improve our team performance.
My job as a patient care technician allowed me to care for numerous individuals from a variety of backgrounds. Through this experience, I came to the realization that I loved people. I loved hearing their stories and the secret hopes and fears they would share with me in the dead of the night. I realized that I wanted to have a career where I could not only help people, but learn from them as well. I believe a career in the healthcare field would allow me to do this.
“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together” (A quote by Marilyn Monroe). One night I was hanging out with my friend. We were talking about life and then she asked me about school, how long I have left there, what’s my major, and what I would like to do with it.
I would like to be apart of ASB because I’m interested in helping Medea be the best school it can be. I always like to learn new things and I will appreciate new experiences learning from seventh and eighth graders. I am responsible and I am excited for my leadership skills to be tested. Also, I will gain more responsibility and learn more leadership skills throughout my time in ASB. As part of ASB, I will be able to work with other students who have similar interests and want to be fellow leaders at Medea.
I immigrated to the United States in the year 2005. Since then, I have served in positions with progressively increasing responsibilities across for-profit and non-profit organizations. I attribute my career growth, in part, to my commitment toward lifelong learning. I am currently pursuing specialization certificate in data sciences offered jointly by Coursera and Johns Hopkins University.
I take rigorous courses because I would lose motivation in a class that hardly requires trying to do well. AP classes keep me on my toes and SIMR would do the same. Continuing, SIMR would be a completely new experience for me. I’ve never participated in a summer program because I’m scared of the unknown. In school, I’m very comfortable around my friends whom I've known for years; SIMR would make me interact with new people in an entirely new setting.
I want to be a physician because I want people to grow old. At the age of 6, one of my closest friends was diagnosed with leukemia. By age 8, the disease claimed his life, robbing him of the opportunity to experience the privilege of growing old. Unfortunately, we live in a society of vanity. We see the process of aging and choose not to embrace it.
are from Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory. Rationalization is done by making up acceptable excuses for behaviors that cause us to feel anxious. Denial is the refusal to recognize some anxiety-provoking event or piece of information. Repression is pushing of unacceptable feelings or impulse into the unconscious.
