Ap Environmental Science Personal Statement
I'm passionate about science, specifically the science that revolves around how our planet works. I live in an area that is a geological hot spot, I’m only miles away from Crater Lake and I live near the Cascadia Subduction Zone. I began to learn that earthquakes and natural disasters were a phenomenon that I wanted to learn more about. So I challenged myself by taking 4 and half years worth of science credits. My junior year I took Chemistry and Physics, and my senior year I continued building credit by taking AP Environmental Science. Each year I strived to earn good grades so that I could have an opportunity to continue my education. I want to earn a bachelor's degree in Earth Science and continue on to an advanced degree. My career goal

    1. The process employed at VW is referred to as “mass customization.” Describe what this means and the pros and cons of such a manufacturing model from the perspective of the customer. Pros Cons • Gives the customer more options for their cars-and the products get exactly what they want • More expensive - anything that is customized to the extent that VW offers, is going to be more $ • Competitive Advantage over the market • First to offer the customization • Takes longer for customers to receive the product - waiting on the car to be manufactured to customers requests and then shipping • other companies mass produce cars ship them and then customize—takes less time • Customer can price the car based on accessories they want • Customer cannot test drive the car before paying for it they just have to see the computerized look • Customer feels more ownership because they designed their own car…

    An Environmental Study

    You are a general contractor wishing to put up a modest sized cement production plant on the outskirts of town. The plant would operate on only one 10-hour shift per day and would produce about 400 cubic yards of output per day for six days per week. It is necessary for an environmental impact study to be undertaken before the county can issue a permit. The biggest issue is, of course, the air quality implications of cement production, but potential impacts on water quality are of concern as well. It is now October, and you want to start building the plant by the end of next summer, if at all possible. It is now time to issue an RFP to procure an environmental impact analysis. Studies of this type normally require about three months of concerted effort by a team of analysts…

    After I Graduate From Orting High School I Will Enroll In An AST

    The education necessary to excel in this field is rigorous and slightly lengthy, but will be brief when my ultimate goals, aspirations, and love for the math and science subjects are taken into consideration. My first path for extended education after graduating is attending Pierce Community College. Here I will attain my Associate of Science Degree, and I will focus my studies on their Track Two option. “The Associate of Science degree (AS-T) is designed for students who plan to transfer to science programs at four-year institutions after completing the first two years of study at Pierce. The degree enables students to fulfill the undergraduate general education requirements of most four-year science degree programs.”(http://www.pierce.ctc.edu/dist/degree/as#track2). I will apply myself to their Track Two option because it is meant “For Science Pre-Majors in Engineering, Computer Science, Physics and Atmospheric Sciences.”(http://www.pierce.ctc.edu/dist/degree/as#track2). This course requires 93 credits, which is equal to 6.2 quarters. With this in mind, it will take about 1.75 years to finish. Various classes will be taken including Calculus I, II, and III, Physics I, II,and III, Humanities, General Chemistry, and English Composition. Upon completion of my time at Pierce College, I will transfer into the Civil and Environmental Engineering Program offered at the University of Washington. “The Bachelor of Science in Civil…

    Explain how a high school or college course has influenced your life. Describe how this course influenced your decision in selecting your college major and how it may affect your career path.

    "So have you decided what you want to major in yet?" asked my high school counselor as I sat before her trying to decide what my class schedule would be like for the following year. I wasnt sure how to reply to such a question considering it was one of the most important questions I could ever answer that would direct my life to its development. I began thinking about all the classes Ive taken throughout high school and there was one class that really stuck. A class I took my junior year as an elective, a class I took just to see what it was like. After taking Environmental Science for a full year I discovered myself and my views on the critical issues of our surroundings. I discovered a different way of thinking I never thought I possessed; the way that made me become more aware about issues that involve our planet. I deeply contemplated the question and answered with a smile on my face, Yeah, I want to be an Environmental Engineer. I was convinced about my choice and ready to incorporate all the lessons I learned from the various readings and projects and opening a new opportunity for others to learn what I did in my class. I was dedicated to ensure that our future generations would not live the life of affluence that many of us live today. I believe it is crucial for everyone to understand how our current global problems affect everyone, present and future, and that is what influenced my decision to choose the major that I did.…
