Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
I love being a student because I get to make so many amazing friends in which we help each other out with our education, and it helps me learn new things that can interest me in many ways, especially when I have to learn new topics and lessons in my classes which can half of the time challenge me and make me think a lot, but if it continues to come up each time and I start to understand the process a little more, it’ll start to become more easier for me to learn these new lessons and topics.
Favorite Subject & Why
My favorite subject is Science (especially Chemistry), because I love learning about our ecosystems within humans and animals in Biology, I love learning about the different types of energy in Physics, and I love learning about atoms and how they work in Chemistry. I love Chemistry the most because I really love learning about acids and bases, learning about the different types of chemical reactions, and the differences between physical and chemical reactions as well.
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
A $20,000 award would support my educational goals by helping me pay for my college classes right now since they’re super expensive today, as I’m trying to go into my Information Technology and Management major at the University at Buffalo in the fall, and I would really love to earn that $20,000 so I can pay my classes for around 1-2 years at least, so that I can still get a great education and more learning experiences in college, and to help myself not be in financial debt either.
