At the beginning of my senior year, I knew one thing for sure: English was not my strongest subject . But even though I lacked grammar skills, I excelled at physics, chemistry, and math. As I started AP calculus, AP chemistry, and AP physics, I fell in love with the way that these subjects could make me feel so frustrated, yet teach me so much in the process. The best part to me about these subjects is how they all connect in certain ways. Physics and calculus have an obvious connection, but my real interest is how calculus and chemistry connect in certain topics such as kinetics. My passion for physics, calculus, and chemistry is the main reason I would like to attend the Georgia institute of Technology. I am very fortunate to have a top teir engineering school located in state where I can pursue my chosen major, chemical engineering, while being close to home. I admire the idea of studying on a campus that showcases the beauty of skyscrapers, whithout the feeling of being in the middle of a large city.

One of my main reasons for wanting to attend Georgia Tech is the rigor of the curriculum. In my classes in high school, some of the students were able to get by with minimal effort. I know that this is not the case at Georgia Tech and I am prepared to work extremely hard in order to pursue my major and get the most out of my education. Another reason Georgia Tech appeals to me is because of the co op program.
I also would like to participate in a co op in order to gain work experience in my field before graduating .

thank you G.P. Burdell for your honest opinion. btw, really cool name!

this is a very rough version…im going to make a lot of additions and subtractions and make it flow better.its really just a few bits and pieces if anyone has an opinion, please post on how i can approve.

i hate the SAT, im at the top of my class in Calculus Bc, but i cant score above a 680 on the math.
