Write a personal statement about how your education has prepared you to take on your next step after high school.

My teachers have prepared me by showing how high school will be hard and how it will work their and what to expect

My education has prepared me to think in a timely manner, to be punctual with my work, not to give ragged excuses for my failures, to always fulfill my obligations, and to be curious, studious and participative. In addition, my education has prepared me academically, how to write correctly, with a correct grammar and with the formal language that the academic environment requires.

should you be the one doing this journal entry? it says "your special talent or skill". are you gonna lie 'bout your talent and make us fake a talent for you?

also this is a really easy journal entry, you can just think of a skill your good at and write did you work hard to become good at this skill (ex: drawing, writing, math, playing music, etc.) or does it come naturally (like a cool trick that you can do with your body). you can do all of that in 150 words. just try and think of a talent and even if your bad at this talent just say your working hard to become good at it.
