I have been pursuing, part-time, my Bachelor of Arts degree, majoring in the humanities for the past four years. Writing and Critical thinking skills are especially important in this major, as it is these skills that are majorily deployed within each individual course. I am making my application to law school, where I hope to gain entrance into a program that will enable me to practice throughout North America. My final grades usually vary between and A+ and an A-. I have always been acclaimed as an excellent writer and was first published in the Montreal Gazette at the age of sixteen. I hope that you will enjoy my papers.
