Medical Sonography Application

Throughout high school, I’ve immersed myself in many extracurricular activities and courses that I love that helped shape who I am. I mainly participated in intensive academic courses involving advanced or AP credits as well as many different volunteering opportunities which resulted in a tight schedule. In the beginning of senior year, it was difficult for me to juggle because I also started my first job. With the help of my sister, who recently graduated Physical Therapy school, I was able to create a schedule that helped relieve my stress without having to give up any of my activities I genuinely enjoyed. My sister helped me create a time allotment for my schoolwork, volunteering, and college applications. She and I are very similar in the sense that we are both determined when we set our sights on what we want. She knew exactly what she wanted to be at the start of high school and worked hard to accomplish her goal. She inspired me to also partake in a medical science as my career due to my love for science and helping others. At first, it was challenging deciding what career path I wanted to follow because I don’t like blood or needles, which eliminated many of my options. I finally decided that I want to pursue a career as a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer, which is a person who implements sound waves to produce images such as ultrasounds.
I plan to attain my degree in diagnostic medical sonography at community college because it has not yet reached the public college level; however, I still plan to attend a four-year institution and acquire a Bachelor’s degree in biology or participate in a Pre-Med program initially because I believe I have worked too hard to not pursue a higher
