THE PERSONAL STATEMENT My interest in science widened when I started college. It gave me the opportunity to do well on my favorite subjects. This opportunity led me to have the interest on the physical human health; specifically the known illnesses that we can have at present and might have in the future. I ask myself questions like, Why do we get ill? Why do our adapted bodies fail to protect itself? How does it happen? How can it be treated? How can we avoid recurrences? I have an immense curiosity in the excellent design together with the imperfections of the human body. My aim is to gain competence in research, diagnosis and particularly the treatment of human diseases and ofcourse, practice it. I know that pursuing higher education and undergoing this course will further widen my knowledge, skills and help me achieve my aim. At college, I learnt clinical chemistry, biochemistry, human biology and physics. In clinical chemistry and biochemistry, I was attracted to the organic side because it is field that deals with formulation of drugs and greatly, overlaps with biology. It sharpened my techniques to understand functional part of the body and interpretation of chemistry results (urea and electrolyte). In biology, I typically enjoyed learning human immunity, human genetics and the possible uses of its development. I also realized the superior design of living bodies to adapt to their environment Physics on the other hand provided me the knowledge to deal with concerns of reliability, precision/ accuracy, and its effects to the interpretation of gathered data. Whilst studying my diploma in clinical medicine, I work as clinical officer at Kamuzu Central Hospital, I had privilege to be deployed in different specialist clinic for knowledge such as gynecology and obstetrics, diabetes and hypertension, urology, infertility and oncology clinic and palliative care team whereby a had a chance to care for the elderly. With this job I realize my enthusiasm to care for people and get gratitude in return. Also, I gained experience on how to deal with awkward situations towards people that are not in the right state of mind or unwell. I have improved transferable skills like time management and team working spirit. I have always have courage and determination to take any challenge in my life regards of my situation. After having chance of taken in consideration to enroll for the degree, I still have plan to take my learning to the next level by studying medicine and specialize either cardiology or child critical care management. Currently, financially I will be able to support myself but I have also assistant from my uncle, Mr D.S.M Kambauwa who has been my guardian since childhood. We have a chance to include the bank statement incorporated in the application form. At my on time a like watching football, movie and chatting with friend. I build my success on 5P: P; prayer, P; patience, P; persevere, P; polite and P; passionate. “Called to serve in order to save” was I theme used on my day college admission which inspired me upto date.
