Dual Credit Scholarship Essay

I"ve chosen to enroll in this Dual Credit Course because I believe that it will help advance

me for next year when entering as a   freshman in college next year. AP Statistics is currently a

a favorite course of mine because I have a passion for the study of mathematics. I believe in

challenging my self on a day to day basis and I would like my course selections to reflect that

part of me. My goal is to succeed in everything that I do. Throughout my high school years, I

have taken other college courses and received good grades in those courses but I have made the

mistake of not enrolling in the programs provided for me to receive credit for college. Another

reason why I made the decision to enroll in a Dual Credit Course was because I had completed

and passed all of the required mathematical courses that were needed to graduate and I didn"t

want to not take a math courses for a year before I entered college, I wanted to expand my

knowledge of math by trying a different type such as Statistics which deals with real life

situations.

The impact that I think that this Dual Credit Course will have on my future is that it will

better prepare me for my education continued after high school. This course gives me insight to

other courses that I will take in the future, especially math courses. Although I understand that

this course will not give me a full college experience, I feel that I will be better prepared for my

courses that I will take in college and that"s one of my main priorities while in high school is to

prepare myself for college as best as can be.
