Goal: Got accepted into University of Massachusetts Boston and moved to USA.

4. + My Influences 1. My father: His support and encouragement towards passing the IBDP and applying to universities abroad. 2. Other students: The competition in my school was high, students around me motivated me into always wanting to work hard and achieving high grades. 3.

10. + Conclusion The outcome of Human Achievement may look pretty but the truth beneath it could also be ugly. As Zinn says through out his reading, “The oppressor is also a victim” (Zinn, 10) This is also shown through out the process of Sheikh Zayed constructing his country. There are still victims now a days that lived in this land years before it was a country but now they no longer belong to it.
