When I was a child my idea of what I wanted to be in the future was not very clear, but I was interested in being a football player, a car pilot, an aeroplane pilot or any profession that was exciting. 

When I was in secondary school I still didn't have a clear idea about it, but I was attracted to careers such as electrical engineering, because it was quite employable and I liked physics, but I realised that I was afraid of electricity. I was also interested in studying something in the health field because I was interested in helping people because the Chilean health system is really bad. My first choice was medicine, but when I received my PDT score I realised that it was only enough to study outside of Santiago and I didn't have the resources and the desire to leave my city. 

After reviewing my options I was between studying obstetrics, nursing or chemistry and pharmacy. I chose chemistry and pharmacy because I felt that I could work in several areas and I had the possibility of achieving the goal I had set myself from the beginning. 

About my university life, so far I've really enjoyed my studies and I've met a lot of amazing people.
