I believe that I fully embody the four qualities of scholarship, leadership, service, and character that are necessary to be qualified as a member of the National Honor Society. I feel that one of my strongest qualities of these four is scholarship. I feel that this is one of my strongest qualities because I love to learn and help others grow in their learning. I have maintained a 3.94 GPA throughout my past 5 semesters at this school and I have participated in many AP and Honors classes such…

occurs trying to pop the acne is not the best way to get rid of it, and would likely cause scarring. Instead, see a dermatologist. Dermatologists help treat people with conditions of the skin, hair, and nails ("About Dermatology"). Helping people feel good about their appearance and health is something that I would like to do for my career, thus I chose to research dermatology. Becoming a dermatologist is no easy task, but Durant High School offers Health Occupational Students of America (HOSA)…

steps of crime scene investigation, such as the steps that Flagg mentioned in his presentation. I was even able to perform a mock investigation inside of a campus house on campus. A crime scene was set up before our class, and our class got the opportunity to learn from BG detectives on how the process goes. They explained the steps that we were to take and in the order, we should take them. After we completed the process, which included, photographs, evidence number cones, evidence collection…

what the other student just said to make sure that they were paying attention. I also asked students to rephrase what the other just said to check their understanding. In my future classroom, I want everyone to have the opportunity to share without taking too much time. So, instead…

same time, I became aware of the obstacles that awaited me should I to be given the opportunity to study medicine. With my father deceased and no government assistance for students, it would be nearly impossible financially. Moreover, becoming a nurse or doctor would mean I would receive the same training as the doctors who continually failed the community they served. Luckily, at the age of sixteen came the opportunity of a lifetime. My entire immediate family was granted visas to move to the…

convergence of opportunity, practice, and cultural legacy which ensured that those whose stories could have been fleeting were instead phenomenal.

I have spent many years in an industry that has required fair to good writing skills, one has to be very deliberate in the delivery of communication to avoid misunderstandings.
