1. To date, I am currently enrolled at Baylor University in Waco, Texas. I am pursing a Health Science Studies degree on a Pre-Med track. My course load is 17 credit hours including chapel twice a week, Christian Scriptures class, and a new student experience class required by every Freshman or transfer student attending Baylor. Along with those, I am in General Biology I, General Chemistry I, General Biology Lab I, General Chemistry Lab I, Calculus, and General English Composition. Although it is a vigorous course, a strong suit of mine is time management which is extremely helpful. 2. I am fascinated by the science field. It is constantly changing through new discoveries. I find it very interesting that everything in this field may not be true and can be proven wrong. There is nothing set in stone and through these new discoveries we are able to back up theories and hypotheses or prove them wrong and in turn opening up new areas of study. I also like knowing why things happen and the reasoning behind them. My favorite class right now is General Biology I because I am able to understand the body and why things happen. I am able to make connections about why things happen. We are currently learning about genetics and I am able to see that Down Syndrome also referred to as Trisomy 21. I can connect the two names together because “tri” means 3 resulting in 3 chromosomes of number 21. I loved being able to make connections where the “light bulb” in my head goes off. Another
Biology has always intrigued me; that is why I took advanced biology courses every year during high school. I chose cardiology in particular for medical school because cardiac diseases run in both sides of my family. I have seen my grandmothers get pushed into the emergency rooms and I thought they were not going
My fascination for science developed at an early age, this was result of a class conducted by the school that taught various scientific principles and other concepts not included in the syllabus. This made me curious and interested towards topics space, nature and its related phenomenon’s, vehicles and various surrounding objects and products that are used in our day to day life. I have always been curious towards finding out working of different mundane and unique objects which is why I got attracted towards the field of science and engineering. Also, with my father being a mechanical engineer himself fuelled my interest of pursuing engineering as a career option.
As I began college, I decided not to choose a major at first. It was not until the beginning of this semester that I declared Biology as my major. I have always been interested in science, and it has always been one of my best subjects. Since I was little, my dream has been to become a doctor. As I have taken more classes, trying to weed out what I do and do not like, I have discovered that sciences are what interest me the most. Currently I have an emphasis in pre-professional studies which means that my major is leading me to attend a medical school after I graduate from Arkansas State University.
The study of biology is relevant now because it has everything to do with life and life is everywhere on Earth. We can use biology to keep that from changing. Biology has helped us grow food, protect the environment, tell us how the body works, and so much more. Thanks to biology viruses and diseases can also be controlled. Biology has advanced the world so much and without it everything would be completely different.
Growing up, most kids in my generation had Disney Channel or Barbie Dolls. As I was raised with 6 siblings and cousins and having just emigrated from England, my family did not have ample money to expend on cable or fancy toys; subsequently, I resorted to books. As I read more and more, my interests began to broaden, and my keen admiration and curiosity for how and why things work in certain ways progressed. As I grew older, I realized that science could be used to answer many of life’s most complex questions. Once I was accepted early into The University of Georgia, I declared my major as Biology with a pre-medical intent, deciding to further pursue my curiosity about living organisms. I soon realized that I needed to achieve more, and decided
Photosynthesis, respiration, the classes of animals, what makes the human body work, how viruses work: all of these are so exciting in my eyes. Science is real and usable in daily life and interested me when it came to application. What to eat, why you think the way you do, what makes your body work, how the world goes round, all of these directly affect your life every day. The same can't be said for European history or learning German. I can't name one time I spoke German outside of high school. But biology studies things like how your body works and that is something that happens every day even if you are
Science has always been one of my favorite subjects, an always found myself fascinated by it. In elementary school, while most of my classmates dreaded going to school, I always looked forward to it. Everyday I would make sure to get to school early, because I just couldn’t wait to see what new things we would learn each day. My eagerness to learn hasn’t changed as I have gotten older. Although attending Harper College has allowed me to obtain my associate's degree, I am now ready to move on and work towards earning my bachelor's degree in Speech and Hearing Science.
I enjoyed learning about what makes up DNA, as well as creating a model to show the Central Dogma of Modern Life. During the creating process of the model, we had to use our creativity and ask more complex questions to make sure that our model is accurate enough so that we could identify each of the steps. I also liked the Chemistry unit because I was able to learn how to identify the different types of changes (physical and chemical) in substances. I felt that my passion has grown because I am learning more topics that are interesting and that can clearly relate to the world. I also think it is because I am understanding how the world works through the study of science.
I am a current Sociology student at The Florida State University and I am interested in your medical sciences pre-professional information (Medical track program). I have completed a few of the prerequisites for the medical track program however, I am missing three courses. Are the classes listed required for admission into the program or are they suggested? If I do not have these courses completed when I apply to the program and have already graduated from undergrad is there a way to complete them during the program or prior to the program at the University of South
My personal quest for knowledge has been ongoing since the first day I picked up a science book. I have never been more interested in any subject. It truly spoke to me. At a college level, there is a magnitude of opportunities. I had the opportunity to participate in the Student Dissector program on campus in the Spring of 2015, I visited the Stanford Cadaver Lab with Biology Club this semester, and I traveled to see a talk by the world renowned American astrophysicist, cosmologist, author, and science communicator, Neil deGrasse Tyson.
My hobby is playing football , I learn the ability to work in a team for achieving a goal . Nevertheless , I encountered some difficulties in science , but I enjoy learning about chemistry and biology because once
My junior year I had the opportunity to take an anatomy class.This, partnered with my psychology class, was one of the most fascinating classes I have taken in my high school careers. Learning about the human body fascinated me as it was something that was so applicable, something that related to how I live my life everyday.
Many people seem to be saying the same thing when they are asked about biotechnology. When I asked my boyfriend he turned right to the curing disease answer as well, which is very interesting. That is one part of this field that interests me. It is such a broad topic that it can cover so many different fields. I saw that you were interested in biotechnology and curing or helping with diseases. I am interested in that as well. What really intrigues me is that DNA biotechnology can show us what genetic disorders a child may have before they are even born. Science is an amazing field and shows how much technology has to offer. I took this class to assist me with a career choice as well. I plan to major in Biomedical Engineering with a
Finding out how and why things work and discovering how products are made has always my passion. I regularly watch engineering and science shows on the television. From my childhood, I have always been a very curious person who would not believe just because someone told me, but I had to know the reason behind it. Science always fascinated me, and I always wondered how we remained on the ground and never fell off something that is spherical. In school I was more interested in maths and science rather than History or Arts and this made me choose Chemistry, maths and physics as my Higher subjects. This has helped me appreciate how Science has been utilised to improve man’s life and make it easier. It is because of this that I would like to
Since I was little, I had love for science. It is the subject that interest me because there’s too many interesting topics. Science make us wonder how things work and how the world was made. In science there 's too many hypotheses that can be made into proved theories. Now that I’m in college, it has only reassured to me that I do love science. I’m taking my Biology courses and they are so intriguing to me. One of my classes that I’m really enjoying right now is Biological evolution.
