My Intellect

I've been around for forever! Literally. My intelligence has existed for forever! However, for purposes of this assignment I will skip past my birth and into my early days as an elementary school student. As a "Knowlton Colt" (in Kaysville Utah) I learned some extremely important things about myself. First, I learned to like girls; second, I hated spelling. After this important discovery I was ready for Kaysville Jr. High. At this institution I was able to learn the beauty of Math, Music, and Science. By the time I entered Davis High I had decided that I really didn't like English very much, probably due in part to my repressed childhood fear of spelling. So I delved into chemistry, calculus, physics, and anything else that could potentially label me as a complete nerd. I took about 6 AP classes and about 7 AP tests including: US History, Statistics, Calculus BC and Micro/Macro Economics. Obviously, I love to learn and I love to stretch myself to my limits. But above all, greater than my love of chess and pocket-protectors (I hope you know I'm joking), I love to be around people. In my opinion education and learning is a gateway to communicating with those I love, and I love just about everybody. Education enhances your ability to share your inner soul with those you love and to help and guide them if necessary. It is, therefore, crucial and pivotal. Hence, I love to learn.

Part B

I intend to get the most out of my time at BYU as I can. I will optimize my education and fulfill what is expected of me and more. So, one way I am going to increase my personal chance at excelling at BYU is to take advantage of my professors and T.A.'s along with the labs here at BYU. I will make sure that I never continue to be confused in a subject I am studying if I have the opportunity to go somewhere and get personal help. I will do my best, always.
