Introduction I have always been interested in learning organic structures and origins of life on the planet. Analysis of molecular structures of organic tissues is a real journey to the world of biochemistry. Probably, understanding the handful of discoveries related to the field made me chose this subject as my major. Since studying at high school, I have been overwhelmed with examining chemical elements, as well as related reactions and processes occurring in living organisms. Though the subject could be difficult for understanding, it covers vast amounts of knowledge about our world in general. Body In order to develop my background knowledge on biochemistry, I took an active part in various volunteer activities. In particular, I was the volunteer at ophthalmology center to work with patients and learn more about physiology and biochemistry of the eye and its parts. Understanding the connection between chemical processes and functions of the eye has broadened my knowledge about the subject and has increased my interest in learning biochemistry. What is more important is that the work at ophthalmology center provided me with deeper comprehension of various organic process occur at molecular level. It was also a great opportunity for me to learn more about the connection between physical and chemical processes. I have also realized that studying biochemistry can also be beneficial for professional fulfillment and development in a variety of fields. Certainly, I had to overcome a number of difficulties to work as a volunteer because of the great responsibilities that I took while working with people and at laboratories. I needed to read piles of scientific journals and peer reviews to get a better idea of recent trends in biochemistry. Because the subject engages an interdisciplinary perspective, I should have a good command of biology and chemistry. I am sure that your college can provide me with all necessary knowledge to reach my objectives and promote my professional career. As a respectable educational establishment, your educational staff involves experts in the field and, therefore, I would be honored to become a student of your college. My primary goal is to obtain degree and further my exploration as a specialist in biochemistry. Because my goal is to contribute to the modern science and introduce inventions that would change the outlook on the discipline, I believe that your institution is exactly what I need to fulfill my purposes. I believe my aspiration for discovery and progress are exactly the features that can help me explore the subject and promote my professional growth. I am a quick learner and I am fully aware of my future objectives. In particular, I am willing to connect my live with the profession that would bring in benefits to our society and improve the overall welfare of our planet. Helping people, therefore, is a priority for me and, therefore, I believe studying biochemistry can suit best this purpose. Conclusion While working as a volunteer, I have gained sufficient research and critical skills, which are among the most important ones for widening my experience and knowledge in the chosen major. In addition, I have
