Personal Statement: Anastasia's Point Of View

Improved Essays
Anastasia’s Point of View Summer has been amazing in England. I went there with my class. There was a special science program there. I had fun experimenting with chemicals and going outside to explore the fauna and flora. I love science and now summer is almost over. I have to go back to school. I don’t like school. It’s boring and sometimes I have a hard time understanding math. I think math is pointless in some ways. I know a lot of cool science facts. Science is my favorite subject. I’m going to take chemistry this school year. I heard chemistry is a hard class. I’m quite nervous about taking chemistry. It is a high school requirement.

I am currently in the airport. I looked at the crowd of people. One man stood out from the crowd.

    The document that was most eye-opening and informing for me would be Document 25, Narrative of an Armenian Lady. Before reading her document, I had not previously heard of the Armenian Genocide so every detail provided was new information to me. I was struck by the matter-of-fact way she described the conditions of their forced journey: “…and that night we had to drink water polluted with blood” (91), “The third day after that they robbed us, and violated us near a place where there was water” (91), and “They also attacked us every night and kidnapped little children” (92). Reading this firsthand account of such a horrid event that I’ve never come across before was truly enlightening because it really opened my eyes to how much else there is…

    I do not if you remember me but I’m Stephanie Espinal. I went to your office before the exam number 3 and talked about how can I do better in the mini-exams. I do not want to say that I give up on doing well in the mini-exams, but not matter what I do I still get a bad grade. This frustrates me a lot. Before coming to UMass I did have problems taking exams but at least, I used to pass them.…

    I’ve always loved the sound of rain. Its soft patter against my window releases me from the stresses of college applications, if only for a moment. Then, as quickly as it came, the rain stops its descent upon my window and retreats; growing up in Central Florida, I have been well accustomed to erratic weather patterns such as the rain coming and going in a moment’s notice. Florida’s weather has taught me a valuable lesson over the years: life can be as unpredictable as the weather.…

    Throughout my high school career, and previous to high school, I have taken various science and art classes. These are subjects that have always caught my attention and I plan to continue attending classes that fall under these categories, during my senior year and throughout college. Science has been a subject that I have always had an interest in and have thoroughly enjoyed. During high school, my focuses have primarily been in health science classes that will help me excel in a medical career, although I have taken science classes outside of this area. The classes I have taken so far are Honors Biology, Medical Science I, Animal Science, Honors Chemistry…

Many people told me that this class was impossible, so I went into school with my mind set on switching out immediately. Alternatively, I decided to try it out and, to my surprise, I actually…
