I'd like some tips or help on my essay. :) I wasn't completely clear on what to write about, so I described why I wanted to transfer while telling the readers about my personality and interests (I hoped that it might answer the prompt, but I don't know).Thanks to any replies.
Prompt: The statement of purpose will provide an opportunity to explain any extenuating circumstances that you feel could add value to your application. You may also want to explain unique aspects of your academic background or valued experiences you may have had that relate to your academic discipline. The statement of purpose is not meant to be a listing of accomplishments in high school or a record of your participation in school-related activities. Rather, this is your opportunity to address the admissions committee directly and to let us know more about you as an individual, in a manner that your transcripts and other application information cannot convey.
There's always been something mystical about "healing" a person. The phrase almost makes you feel like you're being warped back into a mythological age of magic. Nursing has been a dream profession of mine because of one typical reason: saving lives. Of course, there's other reasons like the chance to connect to patients or applying my love of science to my work, but helping a human live tops any list.
I took a wrong turn when I left high school. To my left, the road's sunlight was vivid and the beautiful blue birds reminded me of an old 1920's ballad. I look apprehensively to my right where the light somehow dimmed and the trees weren't decorated with their usual allure of green leaves and amiable animals. For whatever reason, I went right, probably because that furry rodent looked kind of friendly. In reality, I went to one university and didn't go to the other because I missed the deadline. I thought I'd like students and the environment in the university I chose, but there wasn't nearly as much excitement and studious behaviors as I wanted. I was surrounded by peers that wanted average, but I yearned for much more than what was on ground level - I wanted to go higher where I could go past the limits. I know at the University of Texas at Austin I'd be challenged by my peers, something I value that I haven't found yet.
The past year has taught many things in terms of invoking interest in abstract ideas. I love thinking and being a knowledgable speaker. It creates a worldly understanding that could answer questions like why and how do people behave in certain situations. Even scientific questions that ask, "How could gravity be so weak, yet so strong"? These thought-provoking questions led me to pursue being a nurse and also apply to a reputable and challenging university. I'm an incredibly hardworking and determined person when it comes to my dreams. I've studied my way into making a 4.0 GPA in my first semester and I'll continue to do so by any means and sacrifices. As cliche as it sounds, becoming a nurse means the world to me, so I would go through countless trials to show it.
There's a stage in a plant's growth called germination that I could identify myself with. Not yet a mature plant, nor a seed, but in the middle where I'm beginning to sprout. I'm realizing my ambitions as a nurse, but I need the right nurturing. A school like the University of Texas at Austin can offer me that, in exchange I'll offer my devotion to studying around the clock.
