I have done many different things during my lifetime that contributed to my school and community. I made the decision to do many extracurricular activities and community services initiatives during my high school years. I entered in different types of clubs and programs, however all of them evolved around two main things which are to help others and science. I chose these two branches to spend most of my time on because I always loved to become a doctor. By entering volunteer work in the hospital, I became closer to my future job. This created more enthusiasm in me to enter and explore different fields of medicine. Furthermore, I became active in many science committees and programs, like the science club and Aventis Biotechnology Challenge,and the science fair because I always loved science, especially biology. I also have very diverse interests and hobbies that I like to enjoy. For example, sewing, badminton, kayaking, archery, canoeing, bicycling, craft, learning different languages and art.Most of my awards and achievements are scientific awards. For example I won in the regional science fair a gold medal, 3 special awards and Best in Fair 2007 and first place winner in the Aventis Biotechnology Challenge. |
