Recommended: The importance of academic success

My greatest achievement thus far is reaching my senior year in college. This upcoming semester I will be entering my senior year at Long Island University, where I am currently studying Diagnostic Medical Sonography. Being accepted into this highly competitive Diagnostic Medical Sonography (DMS) program, which only took 12 students the year I applied, was just another key in that accomplishment. The DMS program takes a lot of focus, dedication, and ambition to finish out. With 12 hour-long days, I still found time for homework, studying, and my CF regimen. While doing that I also managed to finish out my junior year with 3.3 GPA which is hard for any student, especially one that has Cystic Fibrosis and Diabetes. I hope to soon be able to say

    Along with all my extra-curricular activities, I still manage to find time to accomplish my homework and achieve a high grade point average. Currently, my GPA is a 97.889. I constantly work harder and harder to maintain my grades and continue to challenge myself every year by scheduling difficult classes. Even though travel soccer is all-year-round, I make it my priority to uphold my high grades. With many stresses over the overlap in soccer schedules and studying for school, I make a list of assignments and follow my schedule in order to have time to participate in both. As proof of my scholarly achievements, I have received Distinguished Varsity Scholar Awards for both my freshman and sophomore years. I persevere to progress and maintain my grades so that I can accomplish more when I go to college.
