I intend to pursue a career in medicine, a career that I regard as a calling as well as an aspiration. My sports activities have disciplined me, toughened me, and honed my competitive instincts in a way that I believe is necessary for pre-medical studies, and later, perhaps, for medical school. I intend to enter the health care field, either a practitioner, or perhaps from a business angle, as I have grown convinced, after seeing my own family's struggle with the bureaucratic aspects of the American medical system, that there is a need for an infusion of compassion and reform into the system from all areas, on the part of administrators as well as doctors.
At present, to give me a strong academic founding for my rigorous college studies in science and business, I am currently enrolled in three AP classes: Calculus AB AP, Psychology AP, and Spanish V AP. I hope these classes will give me a foundation in the sciences, and also...
Additionally, after speaking with people through my charity work for whom Spanish is their first language, I have grown to appreciate how much speaking in someone's first language can mean to them, and help to establish a sense of comfort between two people.
My desire to enter the field of health care is inspired primarily by my sister, who has Downs Syndrome. She has inspired me to help others through her own personal accomplishments and her determination to overcome every obstacle. I know that it is incumbent upon every person to make the most of his or her life. I once asked my sister what mattered most to her in this world. I expected her to name a favorite toy or food, but instead she just smiled and said, family and friends, making a difference in the world and changing the world from the better. I could not have said it better myself.
One of Common Cause's most passionate and popular causes is campaign finance reform. Common Cause practices what it preaches -- it is almost entirely funded by the often small, individual donations of its members. It is proud that one of the bills it has been promoting for many years was finally passed with substantial bipartisan support, the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002, "the most significant campaign reform bill in
Defense of the Fed's New Interest-Rate Policy, which was published by The Wall Street Journal on January 6th, 2013, financial reporters Frederic S. Mishkin and Michael Woodford carefully craft a justification of the Federal Reserve's latest revision to its federal-funds rate target. The purpose of the article is to inform readers about the Fed's recent Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), which resulted in the decision to keep the federal-funds
Literature reviews are necessary to ensure that the proposed research to be undertaken in the dissertation does not simply repeat already-existing information, but rather attempts to expand upon it or test it in a new manner and from a different perspective (White 2000). Such reviews can also help to illuminate specific knowledge gaps or points of controversy in the current knowledge regarding a specific issue, allowing for a more
I also need to know the length of time that I have scheduled to speak since professional research conventions usually allocate 10 minutes to 90 minutes for a presentation. If only a short time, I may be advised to present highlights and to give handouts of my presentation. Visual images also facilitate the learning. I will need to build in time for question and discussions. With each audience, I should consider
China's Interests in Iran The following White Paper is an examination of the prospects and pitfalls for China in pursuing further economic opportunity through its investment in the future of Iran. As the two nations proceed with the explicit intention of further entwining prospects both economically and diplomatically, China must move forward with care and precision. As the discussion here will demonstrate, its opportunities and the level of commitment already
Extant literature has been dedicated to the concept of corporate ethics and governance. In regard to the Satyam scenario, Afsharipour (2010) discussed the expectations as well as challenges that face the Indian corporate governance landscape. The paper discussed corporate reforms that were put in place as a consequence of the Satyam fraud. The author recognizes the dire need for proper governance in the entire Indian corporate landscape as a consequence
