The cultural background of my family has also motivated me into pursuing a course in engineering at the University of Michigan. I have ...

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 ...

It is often said that you do not know someone until you have walked a mile in his or her shoes. Whose shoes would you walk in and why?
Personally I have many people whom I would want to know and understand better. However the one person that fascinates and intrigues me the most is my father.
For me he always has been a unique person and the role model respected by community, hard worker, carrying parent and loving husband. I envision him as an everyday hero of the twenty-first century. In the last couple of years, I realized ...

The profession of nursing requires dedication, compassion, and a commitment to learning.

Becoming a businesswoman has always been my dream. My interest in trade first developed during the secondary school, when I would get student stationeries from a bulk-buying store for the cheap price and sell them to my fellows, receiving my money back with some extra profit. I was quite successful and decided to span my consumers. It soon escalated from my school friends being my only customers to their parents purchasing from me as well. Eventually, I started looking for other opportunities to earn profit, and thus began to sell home-made chocolate. I received plenty of orders, especially on Valentine’s Day. ...

My interest in accounting dates back to the time I was in elementary school. I was a straight A student in mathematics from first grade to fourth grade. At the beginning of second grade, I bumped into Mark, who lived with his family a few meters from our house. It was not long before an impregnable friendship blossomed between the two of us. The friendship grew so strong that we used to spend the whole weekend together, either at Marks family house or our house. On one weekend, Marks father, an accountant, was home. I admired the fact that Marks father was ...

Throughout my professional career, many people have asked me the same question, “What motivates you?” My answer always begins in the same way, “When I was growing up, I never truly experienced childhood, or what most people would consider a ‘normal’ teenage life.” Through a series of compounded decisions by my family, at six years old, I started taking care of my younger brother and mother when it became apparent that she was mentally unstable and could not lead our family. I continued to care for my brother day and night in our small one ...

When people think of China, I think they often think of places like Beijing and Shanghai, these sprawling metropolitan places packed tight with millions and millions of people. Or maybe they think of the cold, gray country that exists to the west. My birth city, Guilin, is nothing like these places. I come from the southern part of China, from the Guangxi province, where everything is warm, green, and beautiful. I was lucky to be born in Guilin. My family was lucky also, and were quite prosperous in the years before I was born. Still, I was the first ...

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 ...

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 ...

My desire to become a physician began during my teenage years while watching my father be treated for rheumatic heart disease.

Question 1

My intended major is mathematical economics. As a child, it was intriguing to see that some successful people made predictions about potential risks in the economy, and the predictions came true. This sparked my interest in mathematics and economics. I came to learn that Mathematics plays a significant role in economics; a role that has been increasing in importance as the years go by. Consequently, I have come to appreciate the fact that Mathematics is progressively important in regard to the expression as well as communication of concepts in economics. Today, activity in financial markets is generally governed by mathematical models. My ...

Healthcare is in a constant state of evolution. The education and training of Physician Assistants began in earnest with the shortage of trained medical staff during the Second World War. Traditionally, a Physician oversaw this work, and teamwork was an essential quality of a Physician’s Assistant. The job of the Physician Assistant entails conducting physical exams, making diagnoses, treating the ill, conducting tests and interpreting the results, prescribing medications, and otherwise counseling the patient or even assisting in surgeries. The modern era has seen a shortage of physicians; a problem that is particularly acute in primary care, and the Physician Assistant will be ...

Personal Statement

Growing up in a community where children were fond of claiming that when they grew up they would be doctors or engineers had almost influenced me into taking that line of reasoning and career goal. To be more precise, that happened to be my line of pursuit for the better part of the childhood classes. By the eleventh grade, I had not quite made up my mind on what I really wanted to do. Coming from a family that owned a relatively small hotel from which we made a livelihood from, many times while out of school, I would find ample time to ...

What is the meaning of life? Throughout history, people have asked themselves this question, coming to answers that vary greatly. In my case, I have seen that helping others is my true calling.

From my volunteer experiences, I have learnt the value and personal satisfaction that come with lending a helping hand to those in need. Then, after working at a hospital, I saw that ...

Business has always been a family staple. Grown up to a businessman father, I have developed early awareness of business and management at workplace and in our household. Currently, I am an international student and a business major. Informed by business practices, personal and professional interests and, not least, great expectations of a career as an entrepreneur, I have developed broader and more ambitious plans at a private, established university. Still, I am planning a move into a further rewarding business education for career- and social-related reasons at a private, prestigious university.
The program offerings (particularly as described in ...

Being a committed and gifted international student, I am applying to the USC Marshall School of Business. My devotion to exact sciences, such as math and physics, including but not limited to other fields, are of my genuine interest.

Started as a merchant firm, it expanded into a mid-sized company with its subsidiaries abroad. As a young boy, I observed the peculiarities of conducting a ...

Every single phenomenon in this world is based on the figures – either this is the simplest electronic device, or the money in a wallet, or logistics, or even a boiling kettle. Absolutely everything we are surrounded by is all about figures. No wonder that the first time I closely got acquainted with the world of figures was when I was a child. Thanks to my family I was able to realize a significant importance of those amusing hooks scratched on the paper very early and thus, it helped me shape my life and career aspirations before I actually could think them over.

Reflecting on my personal experiences, I appreciate the extensive impact of science in my life. I was born and brought up in Mekele in Ethiopia. The region was plagued by drought and civil war. As a result, people endured a lot of suffering and they strived to survive. Staying healthy was akin to a violent brawl. There was a shortage of doctors and medical supplies. A lot of people lost their lives, a fact that bothered me. Similarly, access to education in such an environment was almost impossible.

My parents were lucky to have secured an education. My worked as a teacher while my mother ...

Challenges make life interesting. It is these challenges that make success a journey rather than a place we arrive at. I was born in Hong Kong, a part of the People’s Republic of China. Growing up I faced several challenges such as raising my school fees, and common adolescent problems such as trying to fit in with the rest of my peers. However, my parents have taught me never to let my challenges make me consider myself as weak or worthless. Instead they taught me that challenges are what make the world go round. Some may argue that challenges are merely ...

Contributing to the Field of Emergency Medicine

Born and raised in Saudi Arabia, I was always curious and impressed with the human body: how we evolved in to big people from little bodies; how our skin and organs stretched; and how cells reproduced themselves. The older I got, the more my interest peaked about the wonders of the human body. However, during my senior year in high school when my father was admitted to the hospital to undergo Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery, another type of curiosity was experienced. After surgery, he developed very serious complications that resulted in some breathing problems and internal bleeding. ...

My desire to pursue a career in urban planning grew following the experience I encountered while working in East Scarborough community church while undertaking the community service course. On one occasion, a father a little girl was imprisoned, and the other another kid’s father committed suicide. Even though I wanted to help these kids, I had nothing to offer other than a mere comforting through wiping their tears. Furthermore, while undertaking research on policy analysis on the Priority Neighborhood Initiative (PNI) in East Scarborough, i came to learn the housing problems facing immigrants, particularly in Flemingdon Park, Toronto. I came to realize how ...

I would describe myself as a highly motivated, ambitious, and independent young adult. I am self-driven and always work extremely hard to attain the goals I set out to achieve. Furthermore, I am a very active young person and to that extent, I have participated in numerous activities beyond academics. For instance, I attended Fitness Fun and Games where I modeled. I also joined the step team and in due course, I was nominated as the team captain. Being the captain of a team was particularly instrumental in shaping my leadership skills. It also equipped me with important skills of handling people ...

I have always envisioned working closely with people in an intellectually stimulating environment, and, to my mind, a profession of pharmacist is one of the best ways to achieve this, combining the analytical thinking of a scientist with the empathy of a medical worker.
The decision to become a health care provider did not come out of nowhere. Possessing a pharmacy heritage, made it a lot easier for me to select the field I would like to develop in. When I was a child, shadowing my father and watching him counseling patients was a common thing for me. I saw him giving advice about the best ...

Personal Statement

I grew up in a Muslim household which taught me the importance of moral values. Having high moral standards are clearly imperative in a good physician and this is one of the many factors about which I feel passionate, both as a result of my upbringing and because of the person I have become over the course of my life.
My father is a pharmacist and therefore I have been around medicine all of my life. I currently work sporadically in my father’s pharmacy, as a technician. Working as a pharmacy technician has been one of the factors in my professional life that ...

Personal Statement

Having the power to aid people in their suffering, to alleviate pain and put a smile on a terminal patient’s face are powers granted to the special, select few, who have devoted themselves and their lives altruistically to putting the needs of others before their own. It is a vocation of inestimable and time-consuming challenges, and simultaneously, one of empathy and selfless aid. I must admit that before tragedy struck my life and in his dying moments, my father proved he would always be my guiding star, I was not certain if I possessed all the necessary traits one requires to ...
