If I am accepted to Northeastern University I will strive to be a tremendous community member and student by devoting all my time to my studies and to Northeastern. When I am a student at Northeastern University I know I will be an asset to this community as a student because I work hard, don’t give up easily. In addition to being successful academically, I believe that I am obligated to use my talents in a constructive manner, in a manner that will benefit society in a manner that will help maintain a strong community on the Northeastern campus.

Becoming a Doctor has been one of my dreams for as long as I can remember, ever since I was a little girl. (this is a cliché – you need something more reflective of your inner struggle to get where you are now. Why did you start at north shore cc and what did you learn about yourself to make this transfer to a 4 year institution?).

When I started at North Shore, I was ___________. Now I am older, I’ve worked hard in my studies, and I have worked in health care. Now, I truly have the passionate and commitment to the long road ahead, to be a medical doctor. (don’t capitalize Doctor (or any other term in the middle of a sentence that does not describe a specific person)– and use the term medical doctor). and believe I am ready to rise up and meet the challenges ahead. This career choice fulfills my love of helping others and assisting (making you can’t make anyone do anything, you can assist them) them to feel more comfortable (Address the fact that it is a ton of hard work, late nights, exhausting and expensive and you look forward to every aspect. Otherwise, you could stay a PCA and meet your goals) . I am passionate about becoming a Doctor so that I can help others. As a personal care attendant I have shared the lives of my patients – laughs, tears, progress and setbacks. and I have cried with them. I think Now, I am ready to take the next step (it is not a step, that would be a CNA or a nurse) and actually really help my patients as a certified physician.

The medical career gives me the unique opportunity to express my many talents while benefitting human life. Completing medical school has always been my dream. of mine. Like many others I have been through times of sorrow. I have watched my loved ones in pain, with uncertain futures. Recently an uncle reappeared my life. Glad to see him back, I’m also worried because he has been diagnosed with throat cancer. Watching his struggles as he undergoes chemotherapy makes me want to learn more about the steps he will take to recovery and I will learn from him how I can help others. It has been my experience that a physician doesn’t just treat bodies; she also listen to patients with her heart and mind because sometimes illness is helped by friendship.

Success in the jobs I have had also demonstrates believe that I have my constructive use of good social skills. Far more than just being good people skills, I believe they will make a good foundation to be as a successful student and physician . As a sales consultant (for what – you need to mention what you sold, and if it was cosmetics that’s ok because you are talking about the skill not what you sold), I interact and communicate with a wide variety of people, and have learned to talk about a wide range of topics. People seem to frequently trust me easily, and disclose their personal issues to me. From this I have learned to become a good conversationalist, an excellent listener and I keep their trust. I believe these abilities are important make me well suited to a medical career.

(don’t’ start sentences with I, especially don’t start a paragraph with I) Motivated to succeed, I dramatically improved my grades following a bad time at North Shore Community College (you have to come clean and say how you got in academic trouble and what you did to correct it- more than the glossing over you do here – they are going to put a lot of time and money into you – you need to tell them your trouble was not because you made bad choices – you just told them how good your decision making skills are!!!). In the past year I have learned a lot (like what) through my experiences (around what) and relationships. I’ve realized that I was trying so much to make everyone else happy that I wasn’t keeping myself and my interests in mind at times when I should have. Now that I have selected the goal I want to pursue in my life, I plan to work hard to succeed in achieving this goal.

My pursuit of medicine as a career began as a dream to a little girl. Now, I am convinced that medicine offers me the opportunity to live a fulfilling, rewarding life dedicated to helping others. I will enter Northeastern University as a student eager to learn the science of medicine (you can say that if this is medical school application, otherwise you have to enter eager to learn about science, etc and prepare for entrance to medical school). Attending Northeastern University would be one of the greatest rewards for my motivation and persistence for success.

Now you need to relate this to the picture at the beginning of your paper – or drop the initial line in favor of an imaginary photo. You are planning to enclose a photo, right? If not, just draw some more images of how young you looked by the things that seemed appear in the photo.

Today, I am a self confidant young woman, who no longer needs things to demonstrate my success. My goal is to improve my mind, my skills and put them to good use helping others. Attending …..

Good luck
