December 2018Personal Statement
My goal is to go to a D1, D2, or D3 school for sports with a good soccer program and with a good academic rating particularly in computer science. In my opinion I am able to communicate and work well with my teammates. I also wouldn't cause any unnecessary media attention. I am also one of the higher level goal keepers in my state region and I am able to play other positions, outside or attacking mid. Involving my academics I have always had A's or A+'s and am very motivated to have good grades. I have been told my ability to focus enables me to try my best and study well. I am also able to focus on the field and come though at pressuring times.
