A lot of different factors add into my ability to succeed at Penn State, such as being intellectually curious. After taking Chemistry my freshman year, I took such a strong liking in the class and all of the topics covered, that I now want to continue those concepts at Penn State by majoring in Chemistry. I am also highly motivated to continue my education, so I can reach my ultimate goal of becoming a Pediatric Oncologist. A few years ago my cousin battled and won in his fight against cancer, so now I want to become a doctor to help kids like my cousin. This helps me to stay motivated, so that I can succeed as much as I can through my education. These along with many other factors can help me to persevere as a student at Penn State University.
