I wish to pursue a science field after secondary school. I thought that would be a successful path for me to take because I’ve always grasped the many components of science extremely well. I intend to attend UBC because I have visited the campus and have fallen in love with the environment and believe it is a place where I may thrive. I’m currently considering pursuing a career in nursing, which will include knowledge of chemistry and biology, as well as physics. My objective is to continue with physics and biology next year, then switch to chemistry and biology in grade twelve.

Core Competency Reflection

Critical Thinking

I can analyze evidence before making judgments.. When I was thinking on which road to follow for my project, I did this. I went off of the facts from the previous few years of what I had been most successful at.

Creative thinking

I deliberately learn about things that pique my interest or jump into my mind. I did this because when I was creating my future plan, I considered what campus I would be most interested in by considering my interests and clubs that I would like to join.

Critical and reflective thinking

I can ask open ended questions to gather informational can ask open ended questions to gather information. The discussion of my future career led me to ask my family what they believe I’ll do after high school. This encouraged me tremendously in devising a strategy for the future.

Working on

I consider more than one way to proceed in an investigation. This is something I’d like to focus on because there are times when I make decisions without realizing there are other possibilities.
