Goals For High School Research Paper

Decent Essays
I sometimes feel like a bumble bee, my whole life I have been told that becoming a doctor is impossible for me, much like a bumble bee is said to not be able to fly. However, I continue to go about my life undeterred by the seemingly impossible. I would like to go to college early so that I could optimize my high school experience. I feel like this is a good option for me because I always love a good challenge. I live for it in fact. With my austere dedication, stubborn personality, and unwillingness to give up, I feel like this is just the right thing for me. My specific goals for the Butler Early College Academies program would be to not only get my associates degree but also be well-prepared for college. High-school and college are so different

    I believe that University of Alabama’s Early College program will help me achieve my college goals because it will give me a taste of what is to come and preparation for the future. Over the years, I've become very interested in the medical field and I would like to become a pediatric surgeon. As you may already know, pursuing this career requires almost a decade of education in and out of the classroom. This is an excellent way to take as many college classes in high school as I can so I can enjoy college and have an easier experience once enrolled as a full-time student. If I was to be accepted into this prestigious program I would work to the best of my abilities to be successful.…

    College Writing And Reading For The Incoming Freshman The transition between High School and University writing can be challenging to the ill-prepared student. In high school we might have gotten great feedback from teachers about our work: “great job”, “very good” etc, but in college our professors might comment differently most likely because they are searching for something different in college writing. Most often because professors expect a different style of writing than that of a high school class, such as a more developed opinion on the subject rather than a summary of what you researched. The most significant differences are visible in structure, research, argument, and format. In college writing, we move away from the standard…

    I am interested in the Early College Academy because it is a great opportunity. I understand that I will have to do a lot more work here than in other schools because of the college courses, but that does not matter to me. I will still study and work hard for the duration of my time here. This is the only school in which I can knock off two years of college for free. I also like the schedule here and how it's shorter, but I understand that I will have to use the rest of the time for studying and that's alright for me because in order achieve one's goals one has to work hard and that's what I…

    When I was in fourth grade the following year I would have to leave Sing Lum Elementary to attend a new school for two years. The school made everyone in third and fourth grade in my neighborhood leave because they were redesigning the school and didn't have enough room for as many students that attended Sing Lum. So with my best friend, we attended Stockdale elementary. One of the best school years I've had was sixth grade. There were three sixth grade classes and we did everything together; it was more like a family rather than three separate classes.…

    Senior Year My greatest memory so far in my eighteen years of being on this earth is without a doubt my senior year of high school. It was absolutely unforgettable. My senior year as a whole (which was just last year) was the most fun I’ve ever had in my life and the happiest I have ever been. When I was a chubby little freshman with glasses I thought to myself that high school would be one of the longest time periods of my life and that four years would feel like forty years. But man was I wrong, high school went by in the blink of an eye.…
