...National Junior Honor Society Essay Scholarship School has always come relatively easy for me. Even when I was young I was always motivated to be the best in getting AR points in my grade, and for a while I was the best. I consistently try my best to get an A, even when I feel like giving up. When I don’t get one I usually feel disappointed in myself and regularly try to correct my mistake before it can happen again. When I grow up I want to be an engineer, so I try extra hard in math and science. I do well in group projects and I have been best in class in a couple of public speeches. I also was tested and had one of the best reading levels in my school family/team. Reaching 270 AR points in first grade may not earn me any scholarships, but it shows that I’m a self motivated hard working kid. Participation & Leadership...

...whatever I can to help guide them through it step by step. My grades are my top priority at school because when it comes down to it that is what I will be judged on, not to mention my character. Character is everything. As stated in the dictionary, it is said that character is a “complex of mental and ethical traits“, that those traits, or qualities, are “distinctive to an individual” and that they are “built into an individual’s life.” It is those character qualities, those character traits that determine a person’s response in any given situation. I set goals and put in the time and effort to accomplish them. I believe that NHS does great things overall, and that I can play a part in furthering the impression that is made here.
