ABOUT ME
I’m 16 years old studying for my AS levels; Biology;
Chemistry; Physics and Psychology at Southend High
School for Girls’ sixth form. I am very interested in
studying medicine at university as I love science,
especially biology, and also I enjoy caring for others, but
primarily the anatomical side of biology. I feel that I’m an
intelligent person, and I love to learn new things,
especially if they’re something I enjoy. I play the piano
and sing, and have been doing for about 10 years now.
I’m hoping to attend one of the top universities,
preferably in London, so either, Imperial College London,
Kings College London or University College London. I’m
hard working and motivated, optimistic and keen, and I
enjoy challenges. I undertake community volunteering at
St. John’s Ambulance, which I see as useful and relevant
for a career in medicine, and also at Southend Youth
council, where views of young people are heard from
Southend, something I am also quite interested in. I have
learnt Team work and have gained confidence in opinions
from
