SAMPLE STANDARD ESSAY H. S. APPL ICANT

Membership Number: 95800

Standard Essay

“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.” Nelson Mandela As I begin to reflect on my high school experience I realize that many of the accomplishments I am most proud were built on the back of failures unseen. My transcript and awards speak to my accomplishments, but in refection if I had not fallen a few times and decided to get back up, none of those accolades would be possible. I am recovering from math phobia. Even if it is not a real phobia according to Webster’s dictionary, it is real to me. I never performed poorly in mathematics, but in elementary school I did well because I was able to plug in numbers. When I got to high school I was unable to just use formulas to get good grades. Teachers began to ask me the “why” behind the answer and I began to drown. I was taught to figure out answers, and I was good at that task. When I was asked in my pre-calculus class to explain my answers in a deeper way I became frustrated. What difference did it make why the answer was the answer? I am the oldest of four siblings and my parents have instilled in all of us the importance of education. The sympathy I looked for at home wasn’t there. They told me to pray, study and communicate with my teacher. So, I did. I went to school and began to ask questions and study harder and slowly the cloud of confusion lifted. That first semester of pre-calculus I earned my first C in a mathematics course ever! I was very proud of this grade because the journey I traveled to earn that grade was truly my own. By the end of the course I had an A-, and that is all that appears on my transcript, but I am more proud of my process than the grade I earned by the end. I am a proud member of Enon and I am grateful for the opportunities my church has afforded me. The major lesson I learned from all the tournaments I lost, competitions in which I didn’t place first and even the sermons from one Sunday to next are that of resiliency. If Jesus Christ could die so that I could live, then I should live this life to the fullest. There is no way I can quit or speak of what I can’t do with the example of love He provided. In conclusion, I am proud of what my transcripts and awards say about my character. My transcript doesn’t speak of my future aspirations, dreams and strong will to succeed. I will one day be an educator who will impact the community I came from. Although I know that I will not become a millionaire with this career choice, I will be able to give back a small portion of the hope and dreams that were given to me.
