Medicine Personal Statement

I am currently studying A level in Chemistry, Biology, Urdu and Physics. I gained my As level in computing. It has been my ambition to enter the medical profession since I was a child, and grew deeper during my primary school exams, which were hindered when I contracted measles so I couldn't perform that well. A doctor helped me to cope with pressure. Therefore I thought of becoming a doctor so I would be able to help others. I enjoy studying the sciences and very keen in learning the facts about human body. Chemistry and biology have been my favorite subjects at school. I am very fond of reading new things discovered and invented in the medical fields

I have gained an insight into the medical profession through shadowing my uncle who is a specialist in pediatric care. I thoroughly enjoyed working under a medical professional and how much hard work is covered in treating patients. It was a valuable experience for me to work in a clinic. I have done Voluntary work experience in Ashford Hospital located in West London. In this work experience I visited different departments and wards in the hospital and experienced that how the doctors carryout their jobs I also do more voluntary work among other things like giving meals to patients, making their beds, chatting with them, sharing their views. I have worked in the stroke ward for 1 week in the same hospital, and have seen how doctors treat patient that are mostly old aged people with strokes , and how the physiotherapists and occupational therapist helps them to get back to their normal life again. Moreover I have done two days work experience in the emergency ward, and have shadowed the doctors who work in the emergency ward at Ashford Hospital

I was born in Belgium, but I did my O levels from Overseas Pakistanis Foundation (OPF). During my O levels I have been member of UNICEF team in the school, and have organized fashion shows and fun fairs to raise funds for poor and needy. I was elected as Joint secretary at my school, so I had a chance to contribute to my school life. I also took part in many projects related to science for example I achieved a distinction when I made model of a human brain. I have also taken part in a discussion seminar of how to control HIV virus and aids, and have made many posters related to science where I have won prizes. Here at Cranford I have participated fully on open evenings, where I have demonstrated experiments to parents and prospective pupils and talked to them

I am very good in sports, and I used to play Basket ball, netball, Tennis, cricket and badminton at school level. Once I also took part in a hiking contest, in which I had to hike Margalla Mountain in Pakistan, and fortunately I won 1st price. I often used to take part in debate contests in the school. I am also fond of reading good fiction stories, and I also enjoy oil painting, which I think brings me near to nature. I enjoy writing poems. I have also designed three websites, and have won awards in making these websites and moreover I am very keen in gaining new information through the new way of IT i.e

the web.I have also won British Language flag award in French and Urdu

I think that I am really helpful in nature to which my teachers agree as well. I am really friendly with my classmates and help them whenever they need help. I am very creative in nature. I have a strong and good character, and easily adjust new situation. Due to late arrival in this country I joined A level in mid November, but I worked hard and covered part of syllabus that I missed on time. I am determined to realize my ambition to be a medical profession. I have visited two of the medical colleges during my High school, and I am determined to become a professional doctor through commitment, dedication and enthusiasm.
