Temple Personal Statement
Imagine you have graduated from Temple University. You are preparing to attend your 10-year reunion, and the alumni office has asked you to write a one-page essay about your personal and professional accomplishments since graduation. What would yours say?
My journey started 16 years ago right after I graduated high school. In the beginning, I didn’t really know what I wanted to do, but I knew I was fascinated with science and medicine. In the first part of my journey I attended Community College of Philadelphia. When I got to college I had no idea which way to go or what steps to even begin to take. So I took a few classes here and there while I contemplated a career goal. After taking an anatomy and physiology course I knew that I wanted to become a physician. When I first began Community College of Philadelphia I was immature and didn’t see the importance of doing my best. My grades weren’t too great but when I realized my goal, I knew I had to buckle down and really show the determination and commitment I was capable of. On the second part of my journey, I was lead to Temple University. I knew that this was the time to stay focused and make sure I did the best I could do and more. Temple was my second chance. While attending Temple I learned many valuable life lessons. Not only did temple help shape me into a mature and well-rounded woman but it also helped me achieve the tools required to have a successful future.
It has been ten years since my graduation from Temple University, where after diligence, perseverance, and a focused state of mind, I successfully accomplished my goal of obtaining a bachelor’s degree in Science. With earning this degree I was ready to enter graduate school to further advance my skills needed to carry on my career path in becoming a Physician. After graduation I went on to medical school. It was challenging, but I was strong-minded and endured. I earned my MD-Ph.D. and started practicing medicine. I really love being a doctor. The
