An example of my determination is me raising my average from an 82 in freshman year to a 93.4 in junior year. An example of me being adaptable is how I moved many times over the course of my life and dealing with hurricane sandy and was still a successful student. An example of me being hardworking because I am able to manage school and work.
Special circumstances in my life include my parents being divorced and living with ADHD. My parents being divorced and made me live a more independent life with my mom being a single mother and working. ADHD has made life difficult at certain times, but i have been striving to over come and do my best.
An ability that make
me especially valuable to a college is that I am committed to helping the community. A way that I have used this is by volunteering for the Nassau County Police Activities League’s Special Needs Unit. I help children with special needs learn how to care for horses and teach them horse care and also am a volunteer for the therapeutic riding program.
I feel i am ready for college because I am an independent student and look forward to being in a new place and doing my best. Some positive contributions I can offer a college are my leaderships skills, and my goal oriented mindset. a few way i could use these are volunteer work, getting involved, and being a successful student.
