Decent Essays
While attending the Academic Blitz, I enjoyed talking to a variety of colleges and looking at all options I have for my academic career. While discussing with colleges, I found out a variety of programs and scholarships/grants that they offer. One thing that peaked my interest was learning about potential professions I could enter, such as education, the medical field, and engineering. The profession of being a family doctor was the most interesting to me. This career takes a lot of work, but comes with great rewards, such as being able to help people. A lengthy education is necessary to be eligible to become a family doctor.

Especially since my parents are immigrants, I have seen a lot of racism growing up; however, that has not stopped them from doing what they love.

    The media has a certain way of portraying; better yet, glamorizing different types of professional careers. Be it a police officer to an attorney, to what I will be discussing today, science and/or scientist. The media i.e. TV and movies, makes these careers look so appealing, which is so not what the career is really.
