I realized I had a calling for business after taking classes such as Intro to Business, Marketing, and Accounting, but it was only last year that I found my true calling in AP Economics. The class’s mix of history, mathematics, and psychology fascinated me and I was inspired to take AP Psychology and AP BC Calculus to better prepare for a future in the study.

I hadn’t thought about it critically and I struggling terribly. Thanks to some much needed help from a fellow classmate, he allowed me to get an idea of things from his own essay. After reading not one, but two other essays, I was so surprised at how oblivious I had been. I never realized that just about everything that goes on in my daily life is, in fact, economics.
