BU Personal Statement

Improved Essays
They say the power for knowledge is one to be feared upon. The world is mine, and with a restless spirit and fierce eagerness to learn, I intend to understand it. BU offers its undergraduates a freedom no other school can quite match. With over 250 programs of study, I will allow myself to drown in a sea of knowledge and experience. I look forward to immersing myself in the two million volumes of Boston University’s twelve libraries, delving into the whys and wherefores of literature and history with professors like Charles Capper and Ha Jin. I hope to spark lively debates in small class courses and amble through one of the world’s greatest centers of collegiate education. My name would be on the roster of Alpha Delta Pi, Dance Theatre Group,

    I am interesting in applying to PLFSOM because I have a desire to ultimately become a primary care physician that works in underserved communities. Coming from a rural area, I know what a lack of providers in a region can do to a community. I have spent a lot of time in border towns since my dads family is originally from Mexico and I have been able to see first hand that even the biggest of border towns still has a very big proportion of their population that is underserved. Right now, I already use my Spanish to help the Spanish speaking patients that we see at our clinic but my Spanish medical terminology is not as strong as I would like. Being able to get my medical education from a school so close to the border would help me become the…

    I first heard of ASMS through one of my previous ninth grade teachers, Mrs.Howard, who had both of her children go there.

    During my freshman year of high school I earned the opportunity to conduct Intermediate Science Research through a three-year college level course provided by the University of Albany, State University of New York. The program entailed that each student find an area to research that pertained to his/her interest. In order to find an area that would encapsulate my interests, I delved into about 70 scientific journal articles, each correlating to impairments of the central nervous system. Subsequent to reading the scientific literature, I contacted Ph.D. researchers from America, Sweden, Saudi Arabia, Shangai, and Brazil and convened with them about my knowledge in their field while discussing the potential of future projects.

    The summer after my sophomore year, my church youth group flew to Boston for our annual mission trip. I had never been to Boston, let alone the east coast, so this trip extraordinarily unique. To this day, I vividly remember boarding at the Wallaston Station each morning of that week hearing the phenomenal accent that all true Bostonians possess.. To spend my next four years at BU would put me back in that same city that holds such fond memories of mine, from cheering on the Sox at Fenway Park, to making fresh PB&Js for the homeless at Boston Common. This city exposed me to culture I had never witnessed before, and at BU I can expect much more.…
