I have a broad range of accomplishments. Most of my accomplishments have been in several subjects such as mathematics, science, and even tennis. I credit my achievements to my own perseverance and growth, my mother’s support, and my teachers throughout school. My mother on the other hand, I volunteered at her workplace and I assist in managing a small business in operation, maintenance, administrations, and customer services with give me some basic knowledge of how the money work.
 My enthusiasm and the strongly committed teachers I have encountered in my life have attributed to my success in math and science. Prior to going onto ninth grade, my Math classes dating back from middle school were never mentally straining. Math appealed to me because in eighth grade, my math teacher, Dr. Christopher, would encourage her class by recognizing our achievements with small rewards such as candies and ice cream passes during lunch. Her actions sparked my interest in math. I have a natural regard for math and science. By breaking down math problems step by step, I can better understand them. ...

  • My Conspiracy Theory Of Algebra

    471 Words  | 1 Pages

    Going through elementary school math was just another subject for me. It was actually simple to me. There were easy problems like two plus two equals four and five times five equals twenty-five. In high school, math turns into algebra I, algebra II, geometry, trigonometry, and other advance math classes. Algebra II was my toughest subject, and most of the students were failing the class. Despite my conspiracy theory that algebra was created by Satan, I figured out a way to make it simpler. Later on in the semester, I showed my teacher ways to make the class easier and simpler.

    I have always enjoyed math tremendously. I can remember riding in a car for long distances as a child and continuously calculating average speeds and percentages of distances covered as we traveled. In college I took upper division math classes such as Real Analysis and Game Theory (and placed near the top of the curve) though they were not required for my major. All this time spent playing with math has left me with a deep understanding of the way numbers work and the many ways in which problems can be solved.

I think my hard work was shown because when I went to River Bend I was placed in classes with people I considered smart. The classes were a bit challenging but I did well. The second year I was at River Bend I moved up even farther in my academics and then I was the “smart” person. People would come to me if they had questions, and I liked being the one to help them.

  • Personal Accomplishment

    1006 Words  | 3 Pages

    “It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things” said Leonardo Da Vinci. I am the type of student who believes in this statement. Accomplishment does not simply appear. Accomplishment comes with a tremendous cost of time, energy, and hard work. In complete honesty, I have had a wonderful life; I come from a traditional family with a middle-class income living in suburban America. As a result, this question had me stumped at first. Then, talking with other students and educators, I realized as a first generation aspiring four-year college student, my journey to higher education has been challenging without the experienced guidance that students with generational higher education parents have. I realized that I have used these circumstances to develop positive attributes as well as educational and social achievements.

  • College Admissions Essay: Creativity In The Film Of My Life

    272 Words  | 1 Pages

    Since elementary school, mathematics has always been the easiest subject for me to practice and develop upon. I realize this might sound cliche, however, for me, math class is a comfortable yet competitive environment, focusing on a subject that is wieldy yet requiring effort, in a place where my classmates can all relate yet challenge each other. Creativity, on the other hand, is a shortcoming in the reel of acts in the movie of my life. Consequently, usual talents such as art, language composition and literature, and music I am only sufficient at and it is difficult for me to build these skills. Therefore, every moment where I have felt substandard about something, I have poured myself into my mathematical talent and I have accordingly become

    My journey as a student has always been focused on the path to college and success. Before I even set foot in kindergarten my mother, a college dropout, always told me that “honor roll wasn’t an option” and that I would be attending college in the future and achieving a degree. Most of the time I made these requirements. Most of the time I was awarded honor roll or had a newly edited list of colleges to attend, but sometimes life got in the way of my dreams of achieving success.
