Personal Statement
I plan to be an eye doctor after college. I currently hold a 4.4 GPA and am taking challenging Honors, AP and CCP courses. I play violin and am in orchestra at school. I would like to play basketball during college because I find basketball challenging and keeps me in top physical shape. I am a person who likes challenges and strive to be the best I can be. Here is my resume of activities I have particpated in during my life. I am always busy and love it!!
