Jakea Brown, has developed a strong love for children and a lot of patience in working with them. Children respond to her and she responds to them which helped to develop her goal of becoming a Pediatrician. An above-average student, she is especially prepared for medical school. Her focus will be on biology, chemistry and writing. Students preparing for a career in medicine must take microbiology, immunology, pharmacology, physiology and pathology along with anatomy. Overviews of medicine, surgery and neurology are covered in the last two years of medical school. Brown adds that Mr. Malonson showed her that sometimes you may fall down, but you have to get right back up in order to succeed.
