Wake STEM Early High School Analysis

My typing accuracy was at 98% since I ended up misspelling one word. In my time management skills, I learned that my two strengths were: Help Seeking and Procrastination. I hate doing things at the last minute since it stresses me out, so normally I love doing things ahead of time. When I don’t understand a question, I always make sure to ask the professor for help. I prefer asking a million questions than to get an assignment back with a bad grade because I was too afraid to ask for help. Although I do have my strengths, I also have my weaknesses and those are: Persistence and Locus of

I would love to attend Wake STEM Early College High School because I believe it will give me a head start on my learning after the high school level. Your program will improve my college experience and save thousands of dollars in college tuition by giving me an associates degree and high school diploma upon graduation. I am also exceedingly interested in a career in science or mathematics. I have always been focused on learning science and math because it is something I love to do and I can have a successful career in the future by using those skills. I understand that attending this prestigious school will require a certain level of maturity and willingness to work hard. As an 8th grader at West Lake Middle School, I am a member of the National

My weakest area is time management because I just don’t think about things most time till the last moment when it’s something I don’t have a lot of thought for, or I just end up not remembering it. My way of improving my time management is to make sure that I focus on that class more and end up finishing that class to make sure that I’m getting work done on time. Another way for me to remember to do my work is to start writing my work assignments in a notebook or something so that I get it done when I look at

When I first found out about Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology (TJHSST), I believed it would be a perfect opportunity for me. TJHSST is a magnet school to improve academics in science, technology, and mathematics. Science and math have always been my favorite subjects. I enjoyed having tasks to analyze and comprehend challenging questions. I was also interested in the fields of technology since I liked working with electronics and finding out about new robots that help make our lives easier. Ever since I joined after-school robotics programs, I desired to become a robotics engineer. I have enjoyed watching videos on robots, as I found them appealing since kindergarten. In addition, my father is an information technology

I've been interested in technological things for as long as I can remember. Not things like the new iPhone or The Apple Watch, but things like coding and programming. It's crazy how you can type in a seemingly meaningless jumbles of letters and symbols and what comes out is something beautiful. During the summer of 7th grade, I took a robotics class, and we went to visit the Cedar Falls High School's First Robotics club, and see the facility that they worked in. I was the only girl that took the class, and I think I was the most intrigued with the inner workings of the club and everything that went into building that robot. Ever since that day, I've always dreamed of being the girl outsmarting all the boys on my robotics team, showing my intelligence

Learning in a college setting grants so many more chances to grow as a student

I never had any problems with managing my own time, however, when I started working as client training administrator at Eversheds, I understood that I need to use some special techniques in order to complete so many tasks in such short time. I understood that every day has only 24 hours and no matter how busy I am, these hours not going to be longer. Observing how everyone working at Eversheds, I also understood that people who are more effective in planning their time tend to be more productive and more efficient. It was hard to learn how to prioritise, because sometimes I had many tasks and all of them were very important and urgent. However, over the time I learned to understand how to deal with different tasks and how to do them faster

Wake STEM Early College High School will be very beneficial to my high school and college experience. Being able to take college classes in high school is not only great as I will gain college credit in high school, but simply being accepted into this school looks great on a college resume for North Carolina State University, or any other college. I would love the environment of smart, friendly, hardworking people, where we could all help each other to receive the best education possible. This school will challenge my academic abilities, but also doesn’t compromise my ability to be in a sport. Wake STEM Early College High School will be one of the best schools to help me unlock the best and highest of my academic abilities.

Because I knew my strengths and weaknesses, I was able to provide personal learning strategies that allowed me to finish my work faster. Since I’m not able to focus on my work for a long period of time, I will use online applications to block all the websites that will cause distractions and set a timer while working (Appendix i, Extract 6). Afterwards, I will reward myself with an episode of a TV show or going through social media. However, time management was still my weakness, as it was always hard for me to go back to work after being

In order to fix and/ or improve this area, I will have to practice better time management skills. One way to do this is to make a to do list. Anytime that I have work to do, I can create of list of the tasks I need to accomplish; the most important at the top and least important on the bottom of the list. Another way to better my time management is to do tasks immediately. This automatically eliminates procrastination from the entire situation.

I am really excited to attend Wake STEM Early College High School because my goal is to be accepted into NC State. My future goal is to

Wake STEM Early College High School encompasses all of my academic interests. While I lean more towards science, I am passionate about technology, engineering, and mathematics as well. My uncles, Peter and Jon, are scholars. Jon is working on his third degree and Peter is a master of all things trivial. They both look at the world with curiosity and wonder. I have followed in their footsteps and become addicted to knowledge. Wake STEM offers the broadest, brightest education education for me.

Although i knew i was smart i was often perplexed and did not know what i wanted to do with my life. Freshman year i had a vague idea of what i might want to become but it was a worn out idea fed to me and it did not really catch my interest. Nothing really did until i came into my computation class. I found computers very fascinating and intriguing MY teacher mr gupton saw i was excelling in the class so he informed me about a computation club called cyberpatriots. Thats when i discovered i had a passion for computers. That club was only the beginning. it opened up a world of exciting possibilities and i was captivated. Because of my passion and enthusiasm i got promoted to the captain of the team. It was the first year and we won third place. However the program was shut down due to lack of student interest. Then a new program opened up in its place walled mesa. I knew i had to join. FIrst i involved myself in the robotics competition. My team and i were unsuccessful. In Fact we did very badly. Although we did not win the robotics competition, I discovered that in a way i had won. Part of the competition was to construct a filtration device that

     One of my weaknesses at home is time management. This is a weakness that I have had to struggle with since my daughter was born. It is hard for me to try to juggle being a full time single parent, working a full time job and attending school full time. I always feel that there is never enough time to accomplish my tasks whether it is household chores, work related or assignments for school. Most importantly I have to make sure that I am readily available for my child at all times.

When I was a kid, I already showed my interests in engineering. My dad gave me a set of Lego as birthday gift, which could be built a city that people live in. But I didn’t follow the instructions, I built a spaceship instead. As I grew up, I learned how electricity works and how electrical energy transform into mechanical energy. I really wanted to create something that can move, not just another Lego spaceship. I took a battery powered motor out of my toy car and added a propeller to the motor. Then I installed the customized “engine” into the boat made by plastic foam and sailed it in the bathtub. The interests drove me to enter South China University of Technology and I was chosen into 'Talented Students Program ' of the School of Electronic and Information due to my outstanding academic potential shortly after I enrolled. My computer related courses are my best and I realized that I should build my essential knowledge in electrical designing as well. I went to Creative Electronic Lab a lot in my spare time and met two E-fans like me. We build a team and won the second prize of the province in 2009 "NEC" Cup National Undergraduate Electronic Design Contest with honor. Finally, I only used 3 years to finish all my
