Baruch College

I believe I would be a perfect candidate to your scholarship. I am a determined student. For example when I had math I never gave up in that class while a lot of people stopped attempting to figure out the answer, I always wanted to be the one who told the class what the answer was. It was a very interesting class. Math is the only subject that seems understandable and easy to me and thats why I still want to continue with math and see where it takes me. I know right now am just getting the credits that I need and am planning on getting all the credits necessary before sophomore year. Hopefully with a little hard work and determination I achieve something in math. Thank you and I hope you would think of me when you make your decision

Thank You

As soon as I got the strong inventory I was thinking to myself i probably got the C but what other letters did I get. When I received it I also got A, as in artistic and S, as in social. I thought to myself that sounds about right. I actually do like the grades that I got because it seems like me so I really don’t have any complains for this exam. As i looked at the paper another job that caught my eye was mathematics. Maybe i should look into that because it could be something I really like. Hopefully in time, with all the different people I meet and job internships I get, I would find something that I really enjoy and would want to do for the rest of my life.

This is my blog and I have a lot of things to say, but in this case I will only reveal my strengths and weaknesses. i consider one of my most valuable and major strength to be math. Ever since i was a kid I was always interested in math, thats why i decided myself to come to Baruch college. Another strength of mine is that I never give up, even when things are starting to look bad for me I always say to myself giving up isn’t the answer. I really don’t think you learn a lot by giving up, a person learns more when they try and fail. It’s like my motto never give up. I could also whistle according to Glenda but I really don’t consider that a strength. Well these are my strengths and now to reveal my weaknesses.

My greatest krpytonite to my story is history. I just don’t like learning about the past. Well maybe I do it’s just that teachers make it sound boring.Thats why I dont find history interesting, because remembering what  did yesterday is history and i remember that because I ate a good burger yesterday. Another great weakness of mine is procrastination. this is a major one because I do it all the time, it keeps me from doing my work and also it makes me do my work at the last minute. It also causes me to feel very sleepy in next days classes.
