This is my personal statement. Can anyone check or give me some idea about this? I appreciate it.
“Little noise, little water” this is what do people hear in a dental office, and this is a part of the dentists life. I am fascinated with dentistry because the passion, the respect with the dentists and the oral surgeons that put many efforts to diagnose my father illness and because of my love of science.
I remembered when I was a secondary school; my dad had oral cancer. The dentists and the oral surgeons fought cancer to save my father life. It was the tough time in our family, but we were not alone. In the cancer battle, the dentists and oral surgeons were always side-by-side our family and conveyed the strength to us. During this period, I witnessed the talents, the passion, and efforts of the dentists and oral surgeons to find the best cancer treatments for my father. With all their efforts, they retrieved my father back from the dead. At this point, I realized that I wanted to be the dentist. Moreover, with the love of science, being the dentist is my best decision in my life.
To desire to be a dentist, I put myself under pressure to motivate myself to work hard in studies. As a result, I completed my prerequisites for dental school with a 3.80 GPA. My overall GPA is 3.53 and my science GPA is 3.65. With my GPA, I was honored in Dean’s List 3 times. Besides, I find that I am extremely exciting in biology and chemistry. Therefore, I have chosen zoology as my main major and chemistry is my minor in order to get an in-depth understanding of anatomy, physiology, and chemical reactions in organisms. I took many science classes although they were difficult and challenging. Difficult challenge stimulus my curious and I enjoy intellectual challenges. Beyond, I like to be able to explore the world of human biology and the diversity of chemistry. Beside biology and chemistry, I took some classes in physic and mathematics to boost my analytic and logical abilities. These science classes give me a firm foundation in dental science.
Besides the love of science, I love working with my hand and people. In my free time, I often decorate my room, my nail and make handmade presents for my friend and my family. These activities help me counter with the stress from studies and life and make my hand dexterous, which is vital for dentists. Aside from loving working with my hand, I also love working with people. I volunteered in different elementary schools and hospitals. I prepared the meals, cleaned up and talked with various people. Every year, I participated in the Big Event- the biggest volunteer event in my school. The event was the big thankful to our community. The volunteer activities aided me a chance to thank my community and developed my communication skills.
Likewise, the experience that I gained in summer has reinforced my decision to study in the dental field. Last summer, my friends and I made a trip to the north of my country for helping the ethnic village. We gave clothes, foods and books for them. We spent two weeks for teaching the children in the village. The kids were smart, delightful and friendly. Nevertheless, I saw many children with cleft lip and cleft palate. Although they were born with this faults, they enjoyed their childhood with all their happiness expressed by the bright smile on their face. Through the trip, I realized that the smile was the most beautiful expression in the world. It was a joy and happiness. Everybody deserved a beautiful smile. This experience was incredibly rewarding for me as it made me grow not only a person but also the prospective dental student.
To gain insight into the reality of dentistry, I spent many hours to shadow different dentists in private offices and hospitals. I was exciting to see what it was like to work inside someone’s mouth. I witnessed many dental procedures such as fillings, dental implants, whitening teeth and root canal treatment. I also observed the way that the dentists interacted with patients and collaborated with staff. From shadowing the dentists, I learned that dentistry was not only the care and the treatment of teeth but also about the communication, business, social interaction and teamwork.
Although there is a long and arduous journey for being a dentist, I believe that with my well-performed education, couple with my external skills that I gained from undergraduate school and the love of science and human that will help me success in the dental schools.
