Undergraduate / 'Actions speak louder then words' - Texas A&M transfer student essay [8]

Saving one child at time was the quote written on my PALS (Peer Assistance Leadership Skills) t-shirt. PALS was one of the organizations I joined during my junior year in high school. It was an organization where I would go five elementary schools each week. My responsibility as a PAL was to be a mentor to these kids and keep their hopes up high for education or life in general. These kids had either a hard time at school with getting bullied or making low grades or having a hard personal life at home. Some of my kids were always down, which made me really thankful of my childhood years. I was one of the lucky ones to get chosen for PALS. One of my benefits was that I knew four languages, Gujarati, Spanish, Hindi, and English. I wish I when I was young in my elementary years I would have had a PAL that would come once every week of the school year and guide me because I felt like I was bullied through my elementary years. My classmates would make fun of my accent, how I was Indian, and some would call me a terrorist because that's when 9/11 took place. It gave me an opportunity what I always wanted to have to other kids. I never thought that I could make such a big impact on these little kids' lives. One memorable thing my child told me is that "Krupa, you saved my life." This was so special to me because I know she was having violence at home which took a toll on her life and it made her really depressed where she wanted to quit. Just then I decided that this is something I wanted to do with my future. I wanted to make a difference in people's lives for the better. I always wanted to see children laughing and smiling big. Through these times I was going through problems myself but my problems were inconsequential to these little kids. I would never smile because my teeth were really bad, finally I got braces which boosted my confidence up really high and I wasn't afraid of people making fun of my teeth because I was getting them fixed. For this reason, I want to be an orthodontist. Braces made a substantial change in my life and I want to do that for other kids. Hopefully through your university, Texas A&M I will make my dreams come true. The reason why I am so eager to attend Texas A&M is because they are top in the United States ranking for their Biology program and its number two top university in Texas. Another reason is because you guys have a dental school which I always have wanted to go to. PALS gave me an opportunity to help out kids and it assured me that I wanted to go into a field that would essentially help people and hopefully through Texas A&M I will be able to.

please give me feedback on making my sentences better, if I'm on track, and what I need to do to improve.

Undergraduate / 'Actions speak louder then words' - Texas A&M transfer student essay [8]

Actions speak louder then words, is a perfect saying to describe me as a person. I think the actions I take in my education speak louder than the grades I get. My dedication to something makes me proud of myself. I am majoring in Biology which has never been a breeze for me but I enjoy the challenge it portrays. I rather work for the grades I get rather then get it fed to me. I have a thirst for challenges. I want to go to your university Texas A&M because its always have been a dream. I also want to go your branch of dental school in the future, Texas A&M University Baylor College of Dentistry. I am currently going to a community college in Midland, TX and the reason why I decided to stay home was because I felt like I could not survive without my parents. We have always been a family tied to the hip but I want to grow as a person and be independent for the very first time. I want to move forward in my education, dreams, and personal life and I believe that Texas A&M will be the best for me to succeed in all my future endeavors. I have set really high goals for myself and I have never had thought about changing them or loosing hope. I am a bit stubborn when it comes to reaching my goals. Both of my parents do not have a degree so I want to make them proud and become and Orthodontist, hopefully through the branch of dental school of Texas A&M.

I feel like I lack so much. I want to mention this sentences but I don't know where to put them; I was born in Panama and my parents were born in India. I know four languages which are, Spanish, Gujurati, Hindi, and English.
