It will make me powerful because nobody can ever take knowledge away from me. That is the only thing I can keep with me until I die. The college degree will provide me with enough power to continue with my career, and I would be able to transfer to UM (University of Miami) and be a doctor. MDC programs consist of a well thought-out series of interrelated courses designed to provide me with rigorous and relevant academic content that will allow me to move forward with my education and enhance my ability to succeed.

I am not going to take for granted their effort and sacrifices. If I study very hard and I grow into a doctor they will be proud of me and I will be able to take them out of that stressful life.
