Discuss the subjects in which you excel or have excelled. To what factors do you attribute your success? Use specific examples to illustrate how you succeeded.
Success with science has lead to my success in math as well. The basic foundations and fundamentals of math and science go hand in hand. They are so closely related that to fully understand one subject, I must further my knowledge in the other as well.
Ultimately, math became my second passion. Functions, formulas, and fractions all made sense to me. In my head, I could work simple math problems and apply the concepts into reality. Math became something more than numbers and symbols to me. It is the basis that brings about economic research and gravity defying sky scrapers. In big ways and small, math has a role in everyone's life.
Everyone called me crazy to take AP Calculus, but I knew better. I had already completed all the lower math courses and my only options left were AP Statistics, AP Calculus or no math at all. The third option never existed in my mind, so I had to make a decision. Statistics was comparably less rigorous and less complex so technically it would've been an "easier way out". But I hadn't taken the easy road before, so why start now? Without a doubt, Calculus is hard. It is time consuming, one small error messes everything up, and there are a million rules to live by. Yet I love it.
Striving to push myself beyond my limits is how I've learned to excel in school. Math and science are just the top two courses in which my interest lays a foundation for my excellence. With my strong work ethic and determination, I am driven to pursue my passions through thick and thin.
****My conclusion is lacking but I'm not sure what to add. Any help (not just on the conclusion alone) is greatly appreciated!! Thank you so much!
