Describe your college experience

My transition to university was a big culture shock coming from The Bahamas but I enjoyed and learnt a lot from it. My experience so far has taught me a lot about myself personally as well as about the world.

Tip for future students

1) Choose your friends wisely. Who you hang around greatly affects your habits and routine. 2) Combat procrastination. Getting assignments in on time or early greatly eases academic pressure and combats burnout. 3) Have fun! You only get this experience once!

Favorite class

My favorite class has been Microbiology because I got to participate in cool laboratory procedures and experiments.

Career goals

I hope to be a doctor as well as make a positive impact in the lives of underprivileged youth and individuals.

My ideal way to spend a free night is with my friends. Whether a movie night or going to get food.
