Uchicago Personal Statement

From numerous computer labs to professional leaders in research, there are opportunities that will allow me to achieve my academic goals at UM that would be otherwise unavailable.

My desire to become an osteopathic physician was nurtured by various experiences I’ve had in

It satisfies my desire for a broad education complete with an enthusiasm for learning, while providing me with an environment full of influential peers that will motivate me to be the best student I can be. It supports my love for unexpected debates, discussing a plethora of topics simply for the sake of expanding my horizons. Most importantly, UChicago embraces and implements their caliber of academia: an intimate educational experience that will allow me to explore a vast array of topics from nearly every angle imaginable. Knowledge is comforting to me, it is safe. It is the objective proof of what is wrong and what is right, the positive force that helps me overcome tests of adversity: and it permeates the campus of UChicago like no other school that I have

When I think of NYU happiness because it makes me know that students of different cultures and religions can come together as one culture within itself, as an African Muslim woman all you want is to feel like you're part of a community.That's what I love about NYU,I feel you can be with someone else that's not the same as who you are yet you're able to share the same passion or compatibilities with that person.Living in the city area makes it even better because there are vast amount of opportunities that you wouldn't get anywhere else. At NYU they embellish on who you are and how you can contribute to helping the world to become a better place united as one. When I went to the open house ,once I saw the building and atmosphere I could see myself at NYU Tisch. At Tisch I hope to perceive things differently. As a writer it brings me the best of excitement because all I ever wanted to do was write, imagine and act .It takes a lot for a school to be this diverse, social and educated rigorously with great academics and still make people feel like they are welcome as a community.

Students decide to pursue health careers in college, but it can be hard to know what is needed to achieve this goal. There are also a great variety of careers included in the health field and each job has different roles and requirements so it can be difficult to know which job you want to pursue. One important aspect of the UC Davis Pre-Health Conference is the large amount of information and resources provided to students in relation to the career they choose to pursue in health.

Most importantly, University of Wisconsin-Madison appeals to me for its diversity of ways to learn. I am intrigued by First-Year Interest Groups(FIGs), Service Learning, the math department and the UW-Madison Software Development Club. The First-Year Interest Groups encourage the exploration of common themes, which has become a course in our high school, called colloquy. In colloquy, we have to read lots of materials about a certain social issue, discuss the issue, and write an essay about it. The process of exploring things beyond the border of subjects has always excited me, and I really want to continue such explorations in college. Different from colloquy, however, the First-Year Interest Groups provide unique views on the themes as participants are from different cultures. Additionally, most colloquy topics are in the field of humanity and there is not too much emphasis on connections of subjects. I would

There were some University of Chicago students who were taking summer classes and I often sat down with them for meals and had some of the most genuinely interesting and fascinating conversations. I noticed prominent, prevailing trends of UChicago students. Every single student that I interacted with possessed the resounding trait of passion in craft. Each student demonstrated a degree of drive, dedication, and determination within their passions that was envious and motivational. The passion that each Maroon had for their field of study was outstanding, I witnessed people who were not much older than myself wholly dedicate themselves to niche areas of academic inquiry. Furthermore, each Maroon kept a mind open to all ideas and theories, demonstrating a maturity far beyond their years. This environment of deep intellectual discourse was unlike any other college campus I have visited, so it propelled UChicago to the highest echelon of institutions. UChicago’s tightly knit community of scholars is an electrifying aspect for me. I love the thought of being submerged in the infinite pool of scholarly discussion where I will be constantly learning from my peers, where my personal corpus of knowledge will expand from just a causal conversation, and where my values and perceptions will continue to evolve. Moreover, the incandescent flames of each student towards their passion will further fan the fire for my

3. Researching at the Mercer University School of Medicine: I believe that doing research at a medical school can help set me apart from some other

Learning, of all entities in the human history, is the backbone and cradle of all headway and furtherance. As it happens, it is the aspect of life that steers one's barely controllable passion of what you like doing or what others have done notably in the past. Learning is so crucial and extraordinary that we couldn't have sent the first man to the moon, or neither can Shakespeare put Macbeth or Midsummer Night's Dream down in a very unprecedented writing. That is all because of substantial and extensive fondness for learning. Learning, on the other page of the book, varies and deviates depending on the individual involved in this. Some may prefer visual over auditory, or kinaesthetic over books, some may even prefer night classes over morning

If we would take a look around us, this world, this age and this moment; all filled with learning experiences. Learning is how we carry on knowledge; it is an astonishing strategy we as humans use to enhance our race. As

When depicting learning, books may feature an adolescent sitting in a classroom listening to a teacher lecture for an entire school day, but in actuality, learning is a constant personal discovery through our environment and throughout our entire lives. Learners cannot have information thrown at them without context and personal investment, but rather they should be directed towards knowledge which will spark desire. Plato’s (trans. 1968) Republic and Margaret M. Clifford’s (1990) article “Students Need Challenge, Not Easy Success” both demonstrate this point, but Clifford takes it a step further to propose that all learners should take these leaps, not just the most intelligent individuals as Plato (trans. 1968) claims. Human beings can not learn by having information drilled into us, but rather we have to be willing to recognize and interpret the world around us without the risk of punishment or failure.

Additionally, being an institution with a renowned research base, and opportunities for medical students to enrich their training with research, I believe that UCONN School of Medicine will also nurture my passion for scientific investigation, and its incorporation

People believe learning is mainly related to education and academics. That’s not completely true. We learn unconsciously every day and process every task, like walking. For me, education has always been my top priority, but what I don’t comprehend is – why is it? Most people view attending school and studying is something mandatory, but I feel differently. Studying became a huge part of me. I love learning and the notion of gaining more knowledge. It could possibly be classified as my hobby. For example, I usually spend all my spare time, and even if it’s for one assignment, indulge myself for hours a day studying in my room. I believe education and gaining knowledge is a privilege and it’s one’s responsibility to act upon it. I truly never understood why learning and education was not being taken advantage of and as a learner, I believe learning can and should be valued more, such as a hobby, instead of a chore or conflict.

“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young,” Henry Ford famously said. Within this quote he exemplifies the importance of learning and implies how people tend to lose the drive in their later years. It is extremely important that people continue growing and evolving in their education throughout their life. To be educated opens a whole new world of opportunities up. An education does not mean only going to school, taking tedious notes, stressing over tests and exams, and staying up late writing papers, but to get the entirety of the education, you must absorb it. Learning goes beyond the classroom and into our daily lives. It is through the three major styles of learning,

Learning is an essential part of life. It is an ongoing process that starts before we are even born and stops the second we die. There are a variety of reasons why we learn, this may simply be our curiosity. We ask questions about a topic we are not certain about. By doing so, we acquire knowledge that is automatically sored in our brain.
