...dentist. Throughout high school and the first year and a half of college, I have found that some of the most rewarding and influential experiences in dentistry have come from participating in enrichment programs at universities and private practices – settling and inspiring my curious mind. The lectures, hands-on experiences, and networking aspects of enrichment programs are unparalleled by any other pre-dental experience, and the activities presented by the hosts can inspire you to pursue dentistry. Most recently, I have attended The Private Practice Experience at Dr. David Forlano’s practice on Long Island and I have applied (and was accepted into) the Gateway to Dentistry pre-dental school internship program at Rutgers School of Dental Medicine. Last spring as a freshman at Fordham University,...

...My interest in healthcare develops from my desire to address real world issues that affect the quality and availability of healthcare to our communities. In December, I will earn a Bachelor’s Degree in Public Health from California Baptist University, which helped establish my understanding of the role of a healthcare administrator, and their need to implement policies to assist with the improvement of healthcare delivery systems. Throughout my journey in pursing an Executive Master of Health Administration degree, I hope to gain knowledge, advance in my career, and extend my network. USC’s EMHA degree is the best program for me, as it not only offers courses taught by excellent faculty and USC has strong alumni and student networks, but the...

...At a young age, I lost my mother, who was about to finish college, due to cancer. Knowing that my mother’s dream is for all of her children to finish college, something inside of me made me value academics more. After graduating from high school in the Philippines, we moved to the United States of America in 2013. When I started community college, the tuition and expenses stunned me. I always wanted to earn a baccalaureate degree, but I had the idea that I will never be able to attend a four-year college or university much less go to dental school because of our financial situation. Despite what I’ve thought, I was still persistent to make the most of my community college years. I joined Phi Theta Kappa, and it completely changed my life. I...

On top of keeping my grades up in high school, I also take online college classes through Clarion University. I've taken College Writing and U.S. History, receiving an A in both classes.

...I also know a lot of of braces: Metal braces made of stainless steel are still common, but the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) emphasizes a wide variety of other materials that are equally effective in moving teeth. Clear ceramic braces worn on the front teeth are much less visible than metal, for example, although they may not be as sturdy. Completely hidden from view are lingual braces, which attach to the back of the teeth. You even have the option of clear, removable braces you take out when eating and cleaning your teeth. Braces are custom-made appliances that use gentle pressure to straighten your teeth and correct your bite. While some practitioners still favor metal braces as the most reliable, new materials and other advances offer smaller, less noticeable braces than were available a generation ago, and these materials are equally effective. Instead...

...reliability, and tangibles. (LMH 197). This break-down can help Dr. Wright more accurately determine consumers’ valuation of the practice’s quality. Responsiveness refers to the “ability to provide prompt service” (LMH 197). At Dr. Wright’s office, the staff is proactive; when they anticipate delay in the schedule, someone calls the patient to warn in advance and minimize inconvenience to the consumer. If, however, there is an unanticipated wait, the patient is only expected to wait a maximum of 20 minutes before given an option to reschedule (Dr. Wright 3). While rescheduling may not be ideal for the consumer, this office policy’s flexibility reflects confidence in their service speed as well as empathy for their waiting patients. A main reason why Dr. Wright built a new office space was to create more room, allowing her staff to work more efficiently (Dr....

...change agenda. The author argues that resistance to change is not a basic part of our make-up and he uses the example of his grandfather’s l ife to provide examples of the many dramatic changes that have successfully impacted on people’s l ives during the twentieth centur y. The author outl ines the leadership inadequacies that result in change initiatives being rejected. Central to these leadership problems are a lack of vision, l imited integ r ity, lack of coura ge, inappropr iate langua ge, l imited understanding of true empowerment, and only a passing commitment to leadership as service. The argument concludes that while many modern leaders have been trained in the what and the how of change, the real problem lies in the fact that the why and the who gains remains largely mute. William (Bill) Burdett was born in 1896 in a small village in Northamptonshire, England. Like many of his generation, he fought in, what has been referred to ever since as, The Great War. Indeed, well in to his 80s, he could describe with vivid detail the Battle of Jutland and the scuttling of the German fleet at Scapa Flow – events that came alive as he described, not what the history books said, but what he personally witnessed. And though he was not blessed with an unusual level of talent, or even with an extra stroke of luck, this simple man, born the son of a farm laborer and trained as a blacksmith, was remarkable in that he was, in every sense of the word, a gentleman. I can attest to that...

...Subject: Successful Princeton Applicant Through all of my accomplishments and disappointments, I have always been especially proud of the dedication and fervor I possess for my personal beliefs and values. Unfortunately, it has often been difficult for me to remain outwardly firm and confident in a town where most people think alike and reject exceptions. Whenever I have expressed my position as a pro-life advocate, peers have badgered, accused, and ridiculed me for simply believing in something that they scorn. Despite all the pressure, I never waive red from my belief, yet I became frustrated and began to lose the courage to publicly express my opinion on this controversial topic. To gain some insight and reassurance for myself, I attended the New Jersey Right to Life Convention in the spring of 1995. This experience uplifted me and offered great inspiration and enlightenment. At the convention I received an overwhelming amount of support and encouragement from wonderful people who advocate the very principles I believe in. This convention was so inspiring that the next day in school I was able to relate my experience to one of my biggest opponents on the subject. Also, the abundant information available at the convention enabled me to defend my position on abortion more effectively. Attending this convention accomplished two things. It proved my commitment to my belief, in that I took the initiative to strengthen and support my opinion, refusing to give up or lose heart. Unlike...

...three years old and is an only child. Both his parents work therefore he attends Childs play nursery. Although Jordon’s parents are busy with work, they both try to spend as much time as a family together as possible for example family dinners, and Saturday night movies. Jordon looks forward to these quality times, as he knows his parents are mostly busy. Jordon likes to play with his parents but understands when they are busy. He loves to play with his bike in the garden, and also the trampoline. He also enjoys his favourite blue toy car and his building blocks. Jordon’s hobby is playing football with his father. Jordon does not suffer from any medical issues or diseases; however he is allergic to egg which means that the nursery cook and staff need to ensure that they are extra careful with what they feed him. Overall this isn’t a great concern and other than that he is a healthy boy. Task 1: 1. Education through play: Schools & nurseries offer a wide range of services in order to stimulate the children. It also gives them a chance to interact with others whilst learning and gaining new skills. The most important and one of the main services is education through play. From my experience at Childs Play Nursery which we visited as a school trip, I found out that for young children to enjoy learning they have to physically engage in the activities. This is aimed at all the children who attend Childs Play Nursery as they are given fun, enjoyable and a range of different...

...Today’s Physical Therapist: A Comprehensive Review of a 21st-Century Health Care Profession Prepared by the American Physical Therapy Association January 2011 Foreword The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) created Today’s Physical Therapist: A Comprehensive Review of a 21st-Century Health Care Profession to provide accurate information for government entities and the public about the history, role, educational preparation, laws governing practice, standards of practice, evidence base of the profession, payment for physical therapy services, and workforce issues unique to the physical therapy profession.
