There was a time when I used to struggle with school. Not because I lacked the intellectual capacity needed for school, but because I lacked discipline. I decided to leave school and join the United States Army. In the Army, I was promoted to Sergeant in just three years and became an Infantry Squad Leader in four. I received several medals for my two tours in Afghanistan, but most importantly, I developed discipline and a great work ethic. After 5 years of service, I decided to give college another try. I was able to raise my GPA from a less respectable one, to one that I can be proud of. I also became an officer of the Psychology Club chapter at my University. Currently I am studying for the GRE and plan to apply to a Masters of Science program in Occupational Therapy.
