Childhood Personal Statements Samples For Students

Having grown up in Russia, and having spent much of my childhood traveling to countries all around Europe (like Spain, Egypt, Turkey, and more), I have been raised to have a very continental, open-minded and free-thinking spirit. While in high school, I gave tennis lessons to children and seniors, which helped me get in touch with my community. At the same time, I became interested in psychology and sociology, and the ways communication can affect others. To that end, I chose to come to the United States in the spring of 2012 to attend East Carolina University, majoring in psychology. ...

I was born in 1983 and was raised in Saudi Arabia, which is my country of origin.I also graduated from high school there, earning as high as 87% in my overall grades.

From 2001 to 2005, soon after graduation, I successfully enrolled in the college of Arts and Education in Taif, Saudi Arabia. I finished a four-year undergraduate program in ...

Since my childhood, I have always been curious about how things work and loved to create the new ones or make them work better. My father was a computer engineer in The Air Force, and I used to watch him working all the time. One of my most vivid childhood memories is when my father took me to his workplace. It was a massive data center of the Air Force, and I was so absorbed in watching giant supercomputers that I left the tour and got lost. According to my father, they were searching for me for hours, but ...

Before I saw my father for the first time at work, I thought that what he was doing, as an aerospace engineer, was some kind of magic. The matter is that I found it out and was first taken to work with my father when I was a kid, and at that time a lot around me I perceived as magic, especially if it fascinated me. However, what I saw my father doing not just fascinated me, but made me wonder for many years after about what were the limits of human imagination and capabilities. I can but say that although ...

My interest in maternal and baby care started after I delivered my daughter and began breast feeding. It was then that I recognized the importance of Maternal-Fetal Medicine. It was at this point that I decided to help mothers become enlighten on the importance of health care during pregnancy and contribute to the global need for effective health care knowledge.
There are many health problems, behaviors, and risk factors that contribute to maternal and childhood mortality and morbidity. However, my goal is to focus on improving the health of expectant mothers by delivering services that reduce barriers before, ...

My Early Life

I am originally from the UAE (United Arab Emirates). When I was a child, my parents decided to migrate to Canada. We lived there for over 10 years. We eventually left our house in Canada after my parents decided to go back to the UAE once again, for good perhaps. I have lived in two countries so far. The native language in UAE is Arabic while the ones in Canada are English and French. Through my years of stay in UAE and Canada, I have learned how to understand and fluently speak their respective native languages—now that is a total ...

Personal Statement

Degree objective:
Being a physician has always been my dream since childhood. In high school, because of the determination I had with regards to pursuing medicine as a career, I took subjects that were related to medicine. I would later get admission into St John’s University for a Bachelors of Science degree. However, because of several financial challenges, I had to take up a part time job; I worked throughout my undergraduate years which affected my GPA. My undergraduate GPA could not secure me a place in a U.S. medical school. But that could not stop me from continuing with the pursuit of ...

Perhaps, the most tremendous experience that has made me choose business ...

I have for a long time been interested in drugs and their interactions. As a child, I remember my younger brother being allergic to crustaceans. This meant that I would always go to the drugstore to purchase anti-allergy drugs which would bring him relief. His allergy resulted in severe physical symptoms like: swollen face; difficult breathing due to reactions in his respiratory tract; and rashes all over his body. It always amazed me and my brother how the medicine seemed to work like magic and this aroused my curiosity about how it worked. This inspired me to take Biology at the ...
