Seerut's Story

My passion is medicine. When I was little, I tended to be more interested in shows and books that revolved around medicine. Thi lead me towards pursuing a career in the medical field. For instance, when people around me get sick, I have a tendency to try to learn more about it. I'd research about the virus and how modern medicine helps in the outcome. Even at a young age I knew becoming a surgeon was my calling. I liked seeing the doctors on TV using scalpels and other instruments to help others. The human body is an amazing phenomenon, and I know learning about medicine even more will help to secure my future in the medical field.

I have many interests and the Yale Young Global Scholars program is an amazing opportunity for me to help enrich my love and interest in the medical field. This program will enhance my leadership skills along with a valuable education that I can apply to my studies. Being a hard worker, I know that putting effort in comes first. This program will also allow me to meet other students from around the country, with different backgrounds who have the same passion and drive to pursue a career in the medical field as I do. Along with my schooling and making new friends, going and living on a college campus will help me to better decide what I am looking for in a college, and what aspects of college education matter most to me.

A Note from Ms. Tedder, Seerut's Teacher

Seerut is one of the most mature students I have had the pleasure of teaching. She is very devoted to her family and very driven towards her goals. Seerut is an avid gatherer of information. While in class, she is the first to offer to look for information on line if one of her classmates has a question. Seerut is also passionate about reading any and all materials presented. I feel that she will benefit from attending the Yale Young Global Scholars Program as it will give her a chance to pursue a life long interest in medicine.

Arriving Home!

Yesterday I had arrived home from an amazing life-changing experience. Going to my summer program allowed me to have a hands-on learning experience in a field that I have an interest in. Going in, I had no idea what to expect! My week went by amazing and I made friends that I will remember and keep in touch with! I found the class to very interesting and it allowed me to explore the different aspects of psychology. We did an experiment on rats, where we placed them into the water to see how fast they would learn to swim to the platform. This a very interesting experience and I got to run the experiment, which was fun! I learned a lot of new things about the human brain and about college life that I will use in the future! Overall I had an amazing time with amazing people!

This was the rat we used to conduct the experiment!

Pre-Summer 2018

Greetings, it's Seerut!
I finally got into the summer program I was hoping for which was the Pre-Psychology: Psychology & Neuroscience! As the wait wasn't lengthy, I am super thrilled to be going! The steps I am currently taking to make sure I am ready for this course are
1. Buying a suitcase
2. Reading and researching about Neuroscience and the medical field
3.Making sure I obtain all essential items
With summer being not too far away, I can't wait to start packing and then enjoy a week's worth of Neuroscience at an amazing college!

Success! Ms. Tedder helped Seerut raise $6,000
