Abstract
This paper is a positive assessment of sports management as a career choice. It outlines and describes the career opportunities available in the field of sports management, the education, training, and skills required, job prospects, and potential salaries.

From the Paper
"I am determined to pursue a sports related career preferably in sports management. The reason for my decision is my love for sports in general and Ice hockey in particular. I know that a career in sports cannot be just taken for granted because of the intense competition in the field that is fueled by the desire in countless other young people to enter a similar career path. The reason for such a trend is not hard to find: there is an in-born desire in a majority of young people to play and enjoy sports. With professional sports having achieved the status of a burgeoning industry, there are several sports-related jobs that can be adopted as full time careers these days and there is nothing more satisfying than doing the thing that we love for a living. In this essay I shall describe the different occupations that are included in sports management, the education, training and skills required for the profession, job prospects in the field and the kind of salary one can expect in sports management."

Abstract
This is a personal essay explaining why the author feels she would make a good physical therapist, what attracts her to the field of physical therapy, and how, as a child, she was always interested in human touch and its therapeutic powers.

From the Paper
"One of the greatest gifts given to mankind is that of the power of touch. Touch is a way to communicate, a way to learn, and a way to express emotion. Through touch, even greater goods are possible; touch can be a way to bring health and create wellness. There have been countless studies that have pointed to the healing properties of touch through massage and therapy. Of course, I didn't know about the scientific background behind the connection that exists between touch and healing when I was a child and began to explore these mysterious realms. As I learned more through my studies about therapy methods and healing, I realized that there was a true calling for me to further explore this field. Now, I know that my path in life lies within the field of physical therapy because of my natural calling to this field that has shown itself evident since childhood, my acceleration in all academic studies related to physical therapy, and because of the good I know I can accomplish by pursuing this career."

Abstract
This paper explains that in contrast to many fellow students, the author entered college with no intention of ever pursuing a medical career because her true aspirations were based more in the humanities, such as literature and art. The author states that, as time progressed, she became increasingly interested in medicine. The paper affirms that the practice of medicine involves not only scientific principles but also a real understanding of the human condition; the author has sought to place most of her interest in science within a broad humanistic perspective.

From the Paper
"However, not all of this dedication alone is sufficient to becoming a physician or some other type of medical professional, for I realize that special skills and knowledge are necessary in order to achieve my professional goals. During my years in college, I concentrated on obtaining a well-rounded, liberal education, for I believe that one must first become a well-rounded human being before one becomes a competent worker in any field of endeavor. True knowledge is based on the ability to think creatively and analytically, the power of observation and problem solving and the infinite curiosity to discover the unknown. Thus, I wish to become the type of doctor who will expand the horizons of current medical knowledge, due to the never-ending and at times mysterious circumstances of new and more contagious diseases worldwide. I firmly believe that dedication and knowledge are indispensable elements in the making of a warm and caring physician, and in order to become a complete doctor, one must be able to have compassion for all humankind."

From the Paper
"I realized early that design and architecture are not easy to do and sometimes even more difficult to understand. Frequently, it requires translation, requiring an ability to communicate effectively and comprehensively, so as a major during my undergraduate education, at the advice of my parents, I chose English. The desire and spirit of design continued to burn within me. In order to quench this feeling, I chose graphic design as a minor. In 1999 I graduated from Albany University. "

From the Paper
"Focusing on a clear job target creates the perfect resume. You must communicate your value to the employer by emphasizing your ability to produce results. Think of your resume as a self-advertisement that clearly describes your capabilities and accomplishments. Make sure your Resume looks perfect! It demonstrates the care the writer put into the work and should not have incorrect data. When writing your accomplishments remember that it is a final measurable product that people can relate too. A duty is not a result, but an obligation. Every jobholder has duties. Be sure to record your accomplishments not your duties."

From the Paper
"The most important aspect of doing a research paper is choosing the topic. Sometimes the professor has already chosen the topic. Other times there may be a list of topics from which the student is free to choose. There also may be times that the research paper may be a topic exclusively of the students choosing. Once a topic is chosen it should be narrowed down, for example if the topic is "Education," the focus may be streamlined to "Elementary Education." It is important not to pick a subject that is too advanced for the writer and avoid subjects where data is not readily accessible."

In my case, I have decided to make my career in Business Administration and Management. As far as my short-term and long-term goals are concerned, I am quite certain about them.

Abstract
This paper constitutes an admission essay into a specialized program. The essay itself is an answer to an open-ended question. The question asks if one could travel abroad for education, where would the author choose to travel and what would the author hope to gain from the cultural experience. In this case, the author choses to hypothetically travel to China and answers the question accordingly.

From the Paper
"If I had the opportunity to travel for my education or personal interest I would be most interested in visiting Eastern Asia, particularly China. I feel that I could learn a tremendous amount from the culture, people and historical sights in that area of the world. The Chinese have had an extremely rich and varied history, often struggling but maintaining a strong lineage of culture and pride. While they still sometimes struggle with politics and individual rights, they are currently emerging as an economic power in the world. The political balancing act that is constantly going on there is fascinating, and I would love to learn and see first hand what changes are taking place. Most of the information about China that most Americans see is from news sources taking a more global and Westernized view of things."
