Homework Answer on Personal History Statement
I am immensely impressed by the anomaly that I have become; a student of Arabic descent specializing in marketing. My undergraduate curriculum that consisted of marketing modules greatly belied my ethnic origins. In fact, I can vividly recall all the uncomfortable moments when I would pause and look around the classroom, realizing that at times that I would be the only Arabic student in the hall of sixty students.
Despite all challenges that I went through, I went on to pursue my passion. I credit all my academic success to the firm resolve that I took to study only things that interest me and not that which I was intended to.I personally believe that, I am adequately prepared for graduate work. During my undergraduate study I was able to acquire significant background knowledge by taking advanced courses in marketing, along with these courses I have worked as a property manager for Amateur design and as an intern with a current newspaper at Missouri University.
I also volunteered in several events, for example, TeDx where I coordinated sponsorship for different events. I have been a recipient of several awards, due to my participation in various activities, I was awarded with a gold award in advertising, a beta sigma, and a certificate in international business and social media I am a certified internet marketer with the internet marketing association. All these activities have enabled me gain practical experience, which I believe will contribute to my academic plus professional success.
