I have attended Laguna Blanca School since the beginning of high school. I faced many challenges that I had not been prepared for, such as managing my time with schoolwork and sports. Freshmen year I struggled to find the time to finish my work, so I had to work in between classes or immediately after class to keep up with other classes. After the semester, I was frustrated and wanted to leave Laguna Blanca to attend a public school, where the workload and academics might be less challenging; however, I decided to stay at Laguna to better prepare myself for college. Being a student at Laguna Blanca has given me many responsibilities, but there is always assistance available. For example, I am able to ask teachers or counselors for help with coursework I have not fully grasped. I find it very comforting that I have help whenever I need with my schoolwork at Laguna Blanca. Likewise, playing on a team sport builds a great bond with other students at the school. I enjoy playing basketball and …show more content…
From the beginning of high school, I have been interested in the field of sports training and sports medicine. At 13 years old, I developed Osgood-Schlatter disease, which is the inflammation of the patella in the knee. I was advised by my doctor to ice my knee and ask my school 's athletic trainer to help with stretching exercises. The athletic trainer was one of the most genuine staff members I have worked with at the school. Throughout this rehabilitation process, I became interested in helping other athletes fulfill their athletic goals including preventing injuries. I believe majoring in kinesiology will be a great foundation for the understanding of human movement and how health affects your overall well-being. My ultimate career goal will be to work for a professional sports team as their athletic trainer and majoring in kinesiology will help prepare me to achieve this
I believe the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Science, and the Arts is the right place to continue my studies, because I love how the classes are based on the U of A academic system and that ASMSA offers an opportunity to obtain advanced college level knowledge before high school graduation. That being said, ASMSA still has a college life atmosphere which I think prepares the students to be more adjusted to what real college will be like. I also enjoy the fact that your professors are eager to help at almost any given time. On top of that, ASMSA will teach me viable skills like researching skills, time management skills, and self-discipline, also it will give me the great privilege of graduating with at least 30 concurrent hours which will
I have known for years that I wanted to work in the realm of health science. I knew that I wanted to do something in sports medicine. When I took a deeper look into sports medicine I learned that there are many areas of sports medicine that you can get licensed in and that the sports medicine part would be a specialty to attach to it. So I took the list as started to look through it at each job that plays an affect in the sport medicine area. I narrowed in on Physical Therapy and then took the time to do some shadowing in it for my senior study.
Carrie Kornacki HCA Personal Statement Letter February 7th, 2023 Dear HCA Selection Committee, “Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity.” This quote from Hippocrates, speaks to me because it illustrates the idea that medicine, healthcare, and kindness to others are truly key to healing people and improving humanity. This is the main reason I want to become a doctor. I have always wanted to help people in any way I could and being in healthcare is certainly a great way to do so. By having a health career, I could have the rare chance to save lives, which is something I have always desired to do.

I want to be a physician because I want people to grow old. At the age of 6, one of my closest friends was diagnosed with leukemia. By age 8, the disease claimed his life, robbing him of the opportunity to experience the privilege of growing old. Unfortunately, we live in a society of vanity. We see the process of aging and choose not to embrace it.
CNA Certification I was really looking forward to getting my job at Winner Regional Long Term Care. This was the summer after my freshmen year and I had just turned 16. My mom and my friend Mollie really made me believe I would have a lot of fun while helping people.

Personal Statement I come from a large family with relatives from a little ranch in Chihuahua, Mexico. Many of which have never made it past grade school. Mainly due to their mother, my grandma, she had fallen very ill. Due to her condition and lack of money my aunts and uncles dropped out of school to work and help pay for her medication and medical expenses. The older siblings had to take care of the younger siblings.
Ever since I can remember I have always wanted to make a difference and help anyone in need that I possibly could. From the start of my childhood, I can recall helping my mother care for my great grandparents, so they would be able to live out the rest of their lives from their home, instead of in a nursing home. As a young child it was extremely difficult to live with and watch my loved ones deteriorate as they got older, as their condition got worse and worse, and saw my mother having a difficult time keeping up with caring for both of my great grandparents 24/7, it put a lot of stress on the family. However, I am grateful to have been able to help my mother care for them. Growing up in such a caring and loving household made the situation
I believe that I am able to help others with certain issues as I have gone through many experiences from being at this school for several years now, and I know how to deal with different problems others may be facing now. Even if I have not gone through the same things others have, I still find it quite easy for me to empathise with other people, which helps me be able to think of different solutions to different problems. From helping others, this would also help me to learn and overcome my own
As high school went on, the workload grew, but I also grew, so I was perfectly capable of keeping up with the work. This type of growth came rather easy to me. It was important for me to have one thing I could be confident with through all of the drama and chaos in my life. Growing in my community was not challenging thanks to the Live Algoma movement. Our community itself has experienced so much growth over the past four years, which allowed many students, including me, to grow in their community involvement as well.
