Seddon Summary And Analysis

There is something in my gut that keeps telling me that I am defeating my dreams of becoming someone bigger than I’m now. And my dream is to become a physician assistant. From the time, I started working as a medical interpreter and closely collaborate with healthcare professionals, I knew that this is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. It’s not even explainable how I feel when I’m in the hospital or clinic and I see how well those nurses and doctors maneuver. All I want to be is a part of them. That voice deep inside of me calling me to start this interesting journey. It’s like pieces of a puzzle clicked together and made an absolute finish image. The remaining was just to discover the right school, in which I did. After a long year of consulting and analyzing different kind of medical schools and universities. I have finally found the one that makes my dreams not just a dream, but a reality. The school is Washington State University. The most important priority for me was to find a local University that could provide me with the convenience of not having to move somewhere else, so I can stay close by with my husband and son. The other things that caught my attention was a small school, but enormous

I decided to pursue a career in medicine when I was an adolescent. I scheduled a science-heavy course load in high school. Pursued a degree in Honours Biological Sciences. Shadowed a physician for two months. Graduated with distinction. Applied to medical schools and received my acceptance. My academic and professional career was already planned at the ripe age of fourteen. As the years progressed, my passion and interest in medicine waned. I was left feeling deeply unfulfilled. The career I was pursuing had ceased to be reflective of my interests. I struggled to procure the enthusiasm to apply to medical school, putting it off until I was in my final year of university. Every time I broached

When planning my pre-medical schedule at the University of Iowa, I found a first year seminar titled “Journey to Medical School.” All of the fears, ambitions, and everything I could think of regarding my journey to medical school was covered in the seminar. I left the class feeling terrified, but more than that, excited and prepared for what was to come within my next 8 years. One of the class periods was filled with the intellect of students who currently attend Carver Medical School. During that class period, I was mesmerized by the way the students carried themselves. They talked with poise and grace. Listening to them talk about how their journey was going made my heart putter – I was terrified, yet excited to continue on my own

In college, my desire for a career path in medicine encourages me to do my very best throughout school in order to achieve my childhood dream. The surgeries I’ve experienced throughout my life have taught me to be strong no matter how painful it may be during recovery because in the end, it’ll all get better. Not only that but of course it has helped me become more interested and knowledgeable of the environment in a hospital setting. My interests in what seems to be a difficult path to complete have inspired my siblings of mine to do better in school to someday be “as smart as Christian”. Due to my familiarization with college and what the classes tend to be like, I have encourage many cousins my age to continue persevering in school to receive the best possible outcome for their future. Although I am not the first out my brother to be enrolled in college, both of us attending STC, I myself have actually surpassed him with the many opportunities given to me at this wonderful early college and has prepared me rigorously for what future college life may be like.

Through my life, I have made many decisions to help develop my interests and skills as well as my character. Such choices of mine include becoming my high school’s band president, a three season varsity sport captain, a national honor society member, a boy scout and an eagle scout. I have been fortunate to earn many awards including merit badges like emergency preparedness and the first aid and the community service award after being accredited for over 180 hours of cheerful community service. When it came time to think about my future with my high school guidance counselor, she introduced me to an idea of becoming a Physician

Adversity has only improved my tenacity, focus, endurance, and problem solving abilities. Various circumstances have affected my academic performance negatively, but I use that as motivation to continually improve myself. I want to be a part of the solution to the family physician shortage and serve the community in the most effective way. My drive to improve the lives of others will help propel me through the difficulties of medical school and beyond. The personal experience I have with my immersion in the field of primary care gives me unique characteristics that will translate into creating a successful physician that focuses on building meaningful relationships with patients. I continually witness how my grandfather is positively impacting the community through medicine and it is my goal to be granted an opportunity to do the same. My belief in lifelong learning and continual self-improvement consistently drives me towards the study of medicine. Because of my life experiences, I now have the balance, endurance, clarity, and tenacity needed to be a successful medical

Growing up as a child, one of my dreams was to become a doctor. I played doctor games, had a medical kit, and took care of my patients (also known as my parents). As I got older, I worked hard in school to stay on track with idea of being a doctor in the back of my mind. I faced many hardships over the years, such as taking several challenging classes or not having the free time like my friends did. When I got older I decided that maybe I didn’t want to be an actual doctor but rather a Dr. of Pharmacy. This career would allow me to continue to help others, but still achieve my childhood dream of becoming a doctor. My perseverance paid

As a child, my parents had always pushed me to reach for my goals and go to school. My mom always made me promise to her, she didn’t care if I got married or had kids, but that I received a degree. And that’s exactly what I did. During my high school years, I dabbled with different subjects to figure out what I would enjoy doing the most as I got older. I believe happiness overcomes money. I would rather be happy than make a million dollars every year. So I sought to find a career that would make me happy. I landed on the medical field. Seeing people in misery shatters me, therefore I chose a career that would help me try and make a difference. I also chose this field to help my mother and provide her with the care she needs. My mom was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2008. After seeing this disease have negative tolls in her life, I promised myself I would always be there to help her in whatever way I can. My mother has always guided me and supported me through all my ups and downs in life, and without her I wouldn’t be up here right

When I first started college, I had several questions I asked myself regarding my future. I thought about what my major would be and what my living arrangements would look like post-grad, but I never questioned what my future career would look like. While I had an overwhelming amount of options, I always had a fixed certainty that I would be in the medical field. The only question was in what capacity? Coming in as a freshman, I could have studied to be a surgeon, a doctor, or even a medical lawyer. Ultimately, I knew that changing people’s lives through medicine was my passion—I just needed to find an outlet. However, not once did my 18-year-old self think that I would find my way into a nursing career. As I’ve come to find, life rarely works out as planned. What lead me on the pathway to becoming a nurse is all but conventional, yet I would not change any

Upon the genesis of my medical passion; at the age of seven, I somehow thought it was possible to also be an astronaut, a firefighter, a lawyer, a teacher, a fashion designer, a singer, etc. I thought I wanted it all but my heart never changed. Throughout high school I kept an open mind as a way of making sure I could hold on to this lifelong commitment that is a career in medicine. While exploring my other interests and desires, I was reminded of the reason why I was pursuing medicine, the heart behind it all. It is my first love.

Growing up in a single parent household with a mother that was constantly sick and two younger siblings under my care, proved challenging for a premedical student. All my life, it has been my dream to become a physician and to be of service to people in need. I have done nothing else but devote all my time and effort in pursuit of this goal of becoming a physician.

Every year in my elementary school, I was asked what I wanted to become when I “grew up.” Portrayals of doctors were an easy find and I remember telling my parents and teachers that one day, I was going to be a doctor. As I prepare to start my family nurse practitioner school, I am overjoyed to tell my family and friends that I am finally on the road to becoming a primary health care provider. I remember always wanting to be in the health care field but never fully knew what that entailed. I graduated high school with the intention to become a nurse and I was naïve to think that I was prepared for what was in store.

While roaming through life’s path, have you ever found yourself trapped between two directions? This happens too frequently, but there are those who remain trapped and there are those who advance. I chose to be happy, in spite of the many challenges. I motivated myself to fight, even though it meant to feel weak. The person, who I am now, will never be who I was before. I have learned that true beauty doesn’t rely on faking a smile, but having reasons to smile and to dream. As a student, I have many goals, but my ultimate goal is to help people. Although I am limited in resources, I know that I can be well prepared to assist others. I strive to become a pediatric nurse, to not only work with children but their family as well. “For my purpose is not to be served, but to serve others”.

Unlike a lot of students in this school, I do not possess an outstanding amount of intelligence or academic prowess. I consider myself to be a mediocre student to say the least, and I constantly struggle with my school work. I become so infuriated at times with an overwhelming amount of frustration that I question my life dream of becoming a doctor. I remember that the best things in life never come easy, that I have to have the determination and unquenchable thirst for success in order to make my dream blossom into reality. With that mindset, I have been able to succeed in taking the first of thousands of steps towards that dream. While taking the highest level science and english courses available at the school, I have been blessed with earning a 48 thousand dollar scholarship to Newman University ,renowned for their success in sending students to Medicine School, for academics. Until my dream of becoming a doctor is a reality, I will never cease in my efforts to achieve complete academic

Henry David Thoreau once said, “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.” Ever since I was young, I have repetitively told myself this for my everyday future. Being a senior stepping into the real world in just a few months is intimidating, but a challenge that I am more than ready to face head on. In this upcoming fall, I will be attending The University of South Dakota striving for a bachelor degree in a mental health field of study. I believe that I have chosen this field of expertise because of the influence my parents have had on me, and possibly, most importantly, always pushing me to be a better, more understanding human being.
