My passion is medicine. I discovered my passion for medicine when I was walking to school one day, and I saw a man injured on the floor. Everyone that saw him acted like he didn't exist. I stopped to see from the corner of my eye that he was injured. After that day, I knew I wanted to pursue medicine for it's not only a way to aid someone in need but a way to show a form of compassion, love, and understanding of the pain that someone is going through. Medicine is not just a eight letter word but the future of this generation, which I want to take part in. So many people often take for granted the great change that they can make in the world, but it starts with your passion and your motivation to see good in the world.
Jessica is a student with an unmatchable work ethic and a tenacity for learning. She is an individual who not only seeks to learn, but searches opportunities and absorbs (while taking detailed notes) any moment she can to gain knowledge. She has asked about study abroad opportunities, has started clubs, has served as a young leader, an Olympiad, a Mathlete - all in the hopes of learning more and growing more. I have had the pleasure of getting to know Jessica since she was in 7th grade, and have heard about her ambitions for herself and have seen her take steps to make her dreams come to fruition. Something Jessica and I have spoken about frequently has been her college bound plans in conjunction with her passion for medicine. The Boston Summer Challenge would allow Jessica to take college level lectures while immersing herself in a mock-college experience. This program is a perfect marriage of two things Jessica is working to learn from- science and what college is really like. Jessica's natural inclination to dive-in whole heartedly into her goals combined with her passion for this program makes her an ideal candidate.
I would just like to say a letter of thanks and appreciation for your ever so appreciated donation to my program. Not only will this help me on my path to understanding what I want to do as a profession in the future , but I will be able to interact with people in different environments and get to know the different aspects of Boston University.
