classmates. To me, elementary school was just preparation for Jr. High, but now that I'm living it, things just progressively get more challenging by the minute. Time goes by really quickly, and in a while, I will be attending college. Currently in the AVID program, scholarships are seen as amazing accomplishments, and to me, they are seen as a key to unlocking your educational future. This is why I believe I deserve the scholarship… to achieve academic goals. I always have goals set, which is a…
grades that were not acceptable to my parents and, looking more into the future, college. My mother would beg me to start becoming more organized and neat but I would not listen to her. When I started middle school, she heard about a program called AVID that supposedly helped students become more organized, helps you take notes, and helped them look into college and the future. As soon as she realized what the program was for she immediately put me in it. I took the program for all my three years…
Avid Radiopharmaceuticals Main issue: Should Avid seek venture debt financing? My suggestion: Pursue on the venture debt, specifically, take the offer from Orlando Capital. To Avis Radiopharmaceuticals, taking on a venture debt primarily means to extend the runway by five (Exhibit 10) to eight months and gains more time as well as more ability to the next round of clinical trials with AV-45 and AV-133 before a Series D financing in 1Q2009. At this point, the AV-45 was finishing up the phase IIb and…
AVID SUMMER INSTITUTE ESSAY Many students in middle school think of High School as a place where teachers would not care about them or what they do, party, “freedom” etc. High School “can be that” when a student would make it that, but what really is, it’s a place where teachers prepare students for the big world and College. I didn’t really see that in High School my freshman and sophomore year. I saw it like the rest of the “party animal’’ students did in middle school. Instead of staying home…

AVID has helped me big time and I don’t where I would be without it.Overall, Avid has changed me in a good way. AVID, has prepared me for the future and it is a big importance in my life. It helped me be responsible and showed me my own strengths and weaknesses. I’ll be lost without AVID and I may be the complete opposite person that I am today. Throughout seventh grade, I wasn’t in AVID and I was a mess. I came to Bellevue during March and I was behind on everything. In my previous school, I…
The goal of AVID is to assist students into getting accepted to a 4 year college. This is accomplished through various ways, some of which are helpful and others which, are quite frankly a waste of time. AVID is not a perfect program but it does offer some advantages such as fee waivers for the SAT and ACT which encourages the AVID students to take those tests. Another clear positive are the AVID tutors which greatly assist the students when it comes to overcoming difficulties that they may face…
The AVID program has helped me in many ways, but the thing it helped me the most with was actually understanding the importance of going to college and it has taught me how to get there. The process of going to college can be very confusing especially for a first generation college student like me. AVID has been extremely helpful with answering all my questions I have about college. It has also kept me on track with the things I need to need get done during my senior year in order to be able to attend…
Everybody has those certain things that they would never do for certain reasons. My three things I wouldn’t ever in my life do are go skydiving, take somebody’s life, and have no future for myself or in other words be a nobody. I have my reasons to justify why I would never do these things with personal experience and with examples from the internet or just stories I’ve heard. Firstly, I would never in my life go skydiving because I am not an adventurous person. I am absolutely aghast of heights…
