Isamar Villasenor

High School: St. Ignatius College Prep.

Favorite Class: Comparative Politics and Government because although I did not like it at first, at the end I realized that I had learned so much and I am able to understand politics and things going on in the world way better.

Favorite Activity: I enjoy making people laugh and have a good time, I also like to draw, sing and dance.

Favorite Teacher/Counselor: Mr. Balaban, he’s always looking out for opportunities that might be helpful to me.

My Favorite way to relax: is when people sing to me, or when I sing myself.

My Favorite book: The Things They Carried, because it shows that there are several points of view to consider about the story, and that it is difficult to pinpoint the truth.

The College(s) I am interested in attending: Northwestern University, University of Chicago, Kenyon, DePaul, Loyola University.

My Dream Profession is:  Astronomer, Physicist, or even better both! Astrophysicist! J

Biggest concern about college: Not getting accepted where I want to go. Oh, and having community bathrooms, you never know what germs reside there.

When I go to college, I most look forward to: Meeting new people, having more freedom in the class choices and schedules.

The piece of advice that I would give to a high school freshman about preparing for college is: to start strong and stay strong, always taking on some challenges.

My hero is: My dad, Mother Theresa, and my mom.
