Sample SOP for Biology
Ever since I was born and started to understand this world, I became fascinated with how organisms and living things function to survive in a favourable and unfavourable environment. Not just this, but there are a lot of things that has kept me wondering about. This curiosity helped me build a deep interest in biology because this was the only field where I could have got my all answers. As I grew older, this interest also grew deeper and deeper. In my leisure time, I would watch videos and documentaries related to the growth and living of wildlife and plants. Spending time with these activities brought me closer to Biology and evolution.
Throughout my schooling, I had been making in the top rankers of the school. My grades were consistently above average, resulting in different opportunities to learn and evolve in biology. When I reached my senior secondary school, I had to choose the subject of my interest. Without a second thought, I chose biology as my major. Again, my grades in senior secondary were quite good. I score a rank of second in my school. This gave me the confidence to choose biology as my major in under graduation.
One person who helped me understand the complexity of the domain in a better way was my father. My father was a scientist by profession. With all his knowledge and experience, he used to help me understand and learn better at every stage of my academic career. My father was working on a project which was involved the breeding of prey and endangered species. During this project, I got a golden opportunity to assist my father in breeding endangered species to save them from extinction. During this project, I got to learn the tit-bits of breeding. This also helped me expand my horizon and got to know about various types of species that are on the verge of extinction or need to be taken care of. Moreover, initially, the mindset I had was of a boy who considered this as just interest, but when I assisted my father and took my interest to level up, I realized something. I realized that this was not just an interest, but I was born to serve in the field of biology.
After my schooling, I was admitted to one of the most prestigious colleges in India. While pursuing my bachelors in biology, I got to learn a lot about complex concepts and courses. Due to the interest I had in biology, I scored good grades throughout in my college. I am a student who is not a bookworm. Instead, I was always active in other co-curricular activities. I had was the captain of the cricket and basketball team of my college. My team and I represented my college in a lot of tournaments and performed well. I also joined English speaking course to achieve native proficiency in the language. Currently, I am a proud member of “The Natural History Museum” in London. I also got an opportunity to join a course on “The Evolution of Animals”. This was organized by ABC college. The study was so interesting that I would travel approx. 100 km every Thursday to attend the session. This was the proof of my curiosity that it hasn’t become any less. My interest grows every day when it comes to biology.
The academic performance from school to my bachelors has made me sure that I am ready to pursue my masters in the field of biology. When I started my research to find the best college for my masters, your college was top. The faculty, infrastructure, student environment and diversity of the college has been an attraction to me. It fits into my requirements from every point of view. Moreover, the labs and the curriculum of your prestigious college has given me the confidence that I would surely be able to serve the field of biology with all knowledge and experience I will be gathering from this college.
In addition to this, I also have a keen interest in Paleoethology and the Development of Science. I am a student that is very determined and dedicated to whatever I do. I genuinely believe that I would stand on your expectations. I am confident about the fact that I will be a significant contribution to your prestigious college.
