What Is My Passion For Anatomy

My ultimate passion is biology, to be specific anatomy. By taking this course I hope to broaden my horizon of career paths. As a result this underlying foundation will not limit me to one specific profession but many that will enable me to continue on to further study.

I have always been intrigued by anatomy and fascinated by the complex structures within the human body which enable us to function. From an early age I was constantly in and out of hospital for various medical reasons. Throughout my time in different wards I acquired a fair deal of valuable knowledge and understanding on medical areas such as treatments and diagnosis. Since then this has inspired to follow a career path in anatomy. My passion for anatomy was reinforced when i attended an anatomy drawing workshop at the Gordon museum.

During the summer in year 12 I was fortunate enough to go on a weeklong taster course for biological sciences at Exeter University, here I gained invaluable understanding of life on campus. I regularly attended the king's college medical lectures during sixth form. In these lectures I saw various positions in Medicine and the bioscience field. This allowed me to get an idea what each field entails.

I wrote my EPQ on the anatomical structure of the human brain. Here I studied, researched and learnt about how the brain functions and its intricate structures. Whilst writing my EPQ I was able to accomplish and tackle many difficult elements that come with writing a dissertation. I managed to accomplish all this on my own which gave me the insight on how it would feel to be a university student. It allowed me to develop my writing skills and grow more independent as a student as the work was set by me without any guidance. This feeling of independence boosted my confidence and love for anatomy even
