Personal Statement: Memo

Pursing a career as a medical doctor is an opportunity for me to mentor youth in underserved populations. As a child, I was raised in the low income, urban community of Roxbury, MA. Although not as notorious today, the neighborhood had garnered negative attention for its high crime rates. My mother emigrated from Haiti and raised me as a single parent. Due to our financial circumstance, Roxbury became our permanent residence. I have always felt there was something lacking in Roxbury in comparison to other towns I visited. My teenage years were largely spent in the suburban town of Stoneham where I attended high school. There was a literal difference in air quality and a psychology contrast in future prospects. While native students of

As a teacher-leader, I have been assigned a number of wide-ranging and important informal roles in my career thus far that have enabled me to support and contribute towards the success of not only my students, but also my department and my school as a whole. By assuming these diverse leadership roles, I have been able to develop professionally, improve student attainment, positively influence the teaching and learning practice of my peers and contribute towards the culture and ethos of the schools I have worked in.

There are few certainties of what one will encounter during life. A common joke names two: death and

The personal statement is very important to applicants who intend to be admitted to an undergraduate or graduate school. The role of a personal statement is to make applicants be different from other applicants. It mainly serves the purposes of persuading the admission committee of applicants’ great passion for the study field, explaining their experience that shaped their personality, demonstrating their longtime desire and commitment for the degree, and showing their life goals. What the admission committee is looking for in a personal statement varies from school to school, major to major. Art and Design is a unique program requiring its prospective students to be different in every aspect. The Art and Design Admission Committee is looking for a student who has creative potential in all respects. Hence, for those who want to apply to the School of Art and Design, they should understand how to present their stories, experiences, practice, goals, philosophy, inspirations, and aspirations in a creative way.

I will be visiting Raleigh in late August; a few potential matches may still be interested in correspondence.

I, Moin Ahmed and my spouse Ismat Ara, continuing our married life since August 22, 2014. I have been working in a prestigious university, as a Lecture since April 8, 2012, and getting a lump sum salary. My organization already provided me No Objection Certificate which is attached with this application and there it is mentioned that, my institution will have no objection if I go abroad to reunite with my spouse, and I will get leave of absence and will be able to join in the same organization after coming back in my country. This NOC is giving me the opportunity to apply for this visa and accompany my wife in her hard times when she is struggling to cope up with a new culture and new environment.

Ever since I was a young child, writing has been my passion. I knew I wanted to major in English at age seven, and since then, I have been excited to attend college and begin my career. Next year, I will be apart of the "AHEAD" program, or "Alaska Higher Education Admission Decision" program. This program allows high school seniors to attend college a year early, so they will earn dual credits. Unfortunately, my school district does not fund this program, so I am responsible for financing the entire in-state tuition. Due to my unique status, I am not eligible for many scholarships; however, this $3,000 scholarship for education will allow me to participate in the AHEAD program.

A year ago the Harvard Business School Executive Education programs dominated my thoughts. Somehow thanks to Google, data mining, and a few powers at be, an ad popped up about the Harvard Extension School. Naturally I clicked on it and was astonished by what was available. A Finance degree, that sounds like a path to grow my business. However, my love for science cajoled me to take a look at what was then the environment science sustainability program. Not only could I take some management classes to fulfill my degree requirement, but also I could extend my financial analyses to include social and environment impacts. Moreover, in my daily reading of the Bible, I came across a verse: And the work of righteousness shall be peace; And the

My guidance strategy is to use is a corrective consequences with Sam. I will start with using a logical consequence when Sam first hits his classmate for not getting a toy. When I see Sam first hit his classmate I will go over to him get on his eye level and explain to Sam that we do not hit and if he continues to hit he will have to have to take a timeout during playtime. I will also give Sam a chance to explain himself as well. I will be clear about what is expected from him. I will not use an offensive tone with Sam.(put in book info) I want him to fully understand me so there is no confusion. The second time I see him hit his classmate I will follow through with the punishment of being sent to timeout and losing play time. I will again

To Whom It May Concern: I am writing this statement on behalf of the information that was found on my criminal background.

Apparently everyone thinks we don't want to be involved with my side of the family anymore... I guess because I have been uncharacteristically short in my responses, or not reaching out to initiate conversations with you..I don't know if it all warranted an assumption that I don't want to be involved anymore, but whatever the reasons may be... First of all, let me say, it is not "we", it's me. You've hurt me.To be blatantly honest, I'm kind of pissed. My family didn't show any support to me/us in Gracyn's birth. My mom was there, so I can't say she didn't support, although she was in private conversation with the family (not sure who all), deliberating about the progression of the labor and underminding the midwives, as a guest at our experience.

Born as a South Korean, but lived in various places around the world. Blended with people who did not share the same culture, language, race, belief, and tradition - which an elementary girl had to take in a lot. Growing up in Pakistan and living in an International Boarding School was not an easy life. Having to acclimate with various types of nationalities, I had to go through many clashes and conflicts. This is where most of my experiences came from - struggling with students and adults at my high school. For five years studying in Pakistan, I went through moments when my life was falling apart and moments when my life was going smooth. These stages of my life gave me so much agony, pessimism, despondency, and blinded me from seeing the purpose and meaning of life. On the other hand, it also did give me laughter and happiness. However, under those circumstances, I strived to fight with differences and problems that I had to come across with, but the hardest part was when there was no one there by my side. Nevertheless, because of my unique lifestyle and experiences, it persuaded me to have a passion for helping teenagers. The reason is because there will and there are people who are going through the same situation as I went through. As for this, I want teenagers or anyone to know that there is someone who is always willing to reach out. Someone who can be reliable. Someone who can listen. Someone who can advise. Someone who can care. Someone who can influence. And these

In our lives, we have to make important choices, and sometimes our choices determine our happiness or sadness. As a Filipino, our families tell us to do well in school and to not make bad choices because they want us to be successful and to have ethical morals. Growing up as a Catholic, I was taught to be obedient and respectful to my family which has shaped who I am today. Yet, I too made some mistakes, and I learned from the consequences. From my failures, I learned to not belittle myself, but to grow.

Since the time I was a child I have found myself to be very bossy. Leading others has always come very natural to me, I have found myself always assigning the tasks in group projects, keeping everyone in line, settling arguments. For the past four years of my high school career I had no idea what career I was going to pursue. One day I found myself thinking of my uncle, he is a top executive working for a branch of the Kentucky lottery. I am jealous of the lifestyle he lives and his financial security. But I am also jealous of his job, I realized that I would love to be in that career field, and would love to do what he does. So I decided that a career in business was the only logical career for me. Based upon my research
