//Talking about my curiosity in learning//

Two of My main objectives at the chemistry summer research program are to first gain lab experience and secondly to discern what I truly want to major in. whether chemistry will become my major. In an academic scene where most students run away (too colloquial) from areas of study with which they struggle, I grow an overwhelming sense of curiosity. This curiosity drives me to work harder in those fields. While I have struggled in areas such as physics, writing, and chemistry, I have developed a great respect for each of these areas of study. I feel that the extra dedication I have given to each of these areas has expanded the rubber bands of my brain so to speak(too colloquial). Einstein was supposedly had dyslexia and therefore subsequently gave up on writing and instead turned to mathematics and physics. He had his late wife write and publish his papers for him because he never developed the needed writing skills. Had Einstein dedicated a little extra time to his disability, he could have possibly developed a that part of his mind that he never knew about. (DON’T end a sentence in a preposition!) Imagine the impact on his theories would have had, had he developed the ability to describe his theories in his own words. Researching an area of chemistry at Drexel University would give me the chance to demonstrate a dedication to a subject that to which I have acquired so much curiosity for. While Einstein endured a life with a serious disability, so have I. I on the other hand see my disability as a challenge to overcome.

//Talking about which sections I would like to work in//

I would love to gain a better understanding of two areas attributed to chemistry. The first area is fuel cell blocks. These devices are seen as very important for the future of energy supply in the future. This curiosity in fuel cells causes me to be interested in the area of studying how chemical reactions occur and are able to produce...
