I am intrigued by the Shared Discovery Curriculum. I think it is very beneficial for medical students because it provides them with an opportunity to work ahead of traditional preparation and to gain as much clinical experience as possible. I believe that I will be successful in the Shared Discovery Curriculum because I am consistent, hardworking and strategic. Consistency is a very important part of success. As a future physician, I know that there will be times when I have a lot of responsibilities and my ability to be consistent will allow me to continue to put in energy when feeling overwhelmed. I am also hardworking and strive to do my best in all things. I understand that the road to medicine is not an easy one but I am willing…

I completely agree! I thought Elie Wiesel’s speech was very moving! How often do we turn our heads from the hurt and suffering? I know that I am sometime uncomfortable with watching people suffer but I often don’t do anything about it. I know that there are hungry people in different countries. However, I don’t send money to organizations that will feed the hungry. I want to be a very generous person, but we all have our limits. Especially, since I am in high school I have a hard time saving money and also giving money. Even though I can’t give a lot of money I can volunteer my time. I believe that a lot of what Elie Wiesel still rings…
I am interested in joining the Schreyer Honors College because I am seeking opportunities to enhance my undergraduate experience at Penn State. Additionally, I feel that my membership in the Schreyer Honors College will help to prepare me for my future beyond graduation. The opportunity to take more honors courses is one of the things about the Schreyer Honors College that appeals to me. Honors courses require me to think more critically and divergently about things and help me to develop ideas and opinions on whatever the subject may be. Right now, my honors course options are somewhat limited, however being admitted into the Schreyer Honors College would expand my choices and help ignite my creative spark, as well as broaden my horizons…

My goals for residency are simple – to continuously learn in order to educate and heal. Although I have been involved in the community in various ways for many years, I am truly excited to start giving back to society from a different perspective – that of a physician, of a person’s first stop in their most vulnerable of times. Family Medicine is a broad field that will challenge me in many ways, but I am ready to enhance my knowledge in a program that fosters learning through a supportive, team approach where patients and their futures are the greatest concerns.…
When I first began my college career, I was undecided as to what I wanted to do with my life. Major after major, I could never find the career that I could be passionate about—until I found speech-language pathology. I had not realized that this career path was so diverse and offered so many opportunities, such as the ability to do research throughout your career, to make a difference by serving underserved populations, and allowed for the use of alternative methods to reach patients. Speech-language pathology is a service profession that is dedicated to treating individuals with communication and swallowing disorders. In order to give the best treatment possible, it is imperative that the professionals in this field utilize the research…
