When I began the college application process during my Sophomore & Junior years of high school, I was daunted by the thought of a standardized test. While my grades were excellent and my extracurriculars plentiful, my first pass at the SAT proved disappointing. And this came as no huge surprise: I have never excelled at test-taking. In response, I spent a full year practicing in earnest: I took dozens of practice tests, analyzed patterns, and identified strategies. The work paid off. At my s... Read more

We also depend on and affect biology in our environment. It is also good to understand biology because it has been ... Read more
