Shaniqua's Story

My passion is science.

I love science! My day could be going so bad, but when I know I have science class coming next I am always engaged, ready to learn something new. It gives me a sort of rush, a sort of energy. It has all the answers to why we live on this earth today, information of the body, how the body is infected, and so much more. Initially, I started with SPREP at Columbia University, taking college level science classes that were extremely challenging. I loved the challenges, and it did not stop me from asking questions to further my experience or from being deeply engaged into the learning. Science just satisfies my curiosity.

I want to take science classes at a college level so I would be more prepared for college in the couple of years that I have in high school. I feel it is really important to make a connection with new and different people because I would learn to become more socializing and be able to talk to anyone and everyone. In this world that I live in today, it is about who you know and how they can help you rather than what you know because if you make a good impression and crowd with successful people you yourself will become successful in life.
