Personal Education Plan

What are my personal interests, strengths, skills, and talents? In every extracurricular activity I participate in, my main goal is simply to challenge myself to perform at the peak of my ability. Throughout my high school career, I have participated in many extracurricular activities. I en oy running, so I compete in track and field and cross country. !uring my unior year my cross country team competed in "#$$ state meet and I %as elected captain of the team my senior year. Through these experiences, I have learned the importance of team%ork, perseverance, and also have gotten the opportunity to develop my leadership skills. I have been a varsity athlete every year in each sport I have been a part of. In addition to challenging myself %hile running, I also challenge myself in the classroom. I am determined to take rigorous courses and turn in high&'uality assignments. $nother %ay in %hich I challenge myself is through community service. I am very passionate about helping others and I love to volunteer. I also competed in (irst robotics for six years. Through (irst, I %as challenged to think outside the box and come up %ith innovative solutions to complex problems %hile collaborating %ith a coach and other teammates. In addition to this, I have ac'uired a ob as a )amba )uice team member. Working at )amba )uice has taught me the value of positive interaction %ith strangers, completing a task early to save time in the future, and setting others up for success. I believe the most important thing that I have gained through taking on all of these activities is balance. It is very important for me to be able to manage my time %isely in order to have time to run, %ork, volunteer, do school%ork, and also uphold my social and family life. *p to this point, I have maintained a +., gpa %hile also fulfilling my service hours, holding a ob, and participating in sports.

What are my personal goals? What are my educational goals? -y ultimate goal is to help others. In order to achieve this goal, there are many smaller, more specific goals that I first %ish to achieve. (irst, I %ould like to complete my senior year as a valedictorian of my class. I %ould then like to attend the .obert !. /lark 0onors /ollege at the *niversity of "regon and study biology and #panish. "ne of my desires during college is to study abroad in a #panish&speaking country. $fter college, I %ould like to attend medical school and eventually become a pediatrician, although I am a%are that this career preference may change. #ome more immediate goals that I have that tie in %ith my ultimate goal are securing a stable volunteering opportunity at a hospital. $lso, last year I attended the -uscular !ystrophy $ssociation1s summer camp as a counselor and I %ould really en oy doing that again.

What action %ill I take to reach my goals? In order to achieve my goals, I %ill continue to %ork hard both inside and outside of the classroom. I %ill continue to volunteer through 20# and in my o%n functions and I %ill pursue a volunteer spot or perhaps an internship %ith one of the main hospitals in the area. In addition, I %ill continue to manage my time %isely and I %ill communicate %ith the *niversity of "regon.
