They would not only care for the patients but also were the first to respond to an emergency and would be available to take care of the patient and their families even after things were stabilized inorder to provide comfort and understanding. The above incidents that I encountered in my childhood inspired me to pursue a career in nursing and I hope to fulfill my dream by applying for the nursing program in your deemed university. Throughout my high school I took up a part time job in a neighborhood clinic, where I was attracted to human anatomy and how the drugs interact with human body. I was a science student and my biology class experience proved to be helpful to a great extent.

This sample SOP is for applying to a master’s program in Music at London. Statement of Purpose – Music My life’s passion has been music ever since I was old enough to sing. As I have grown and matured, I have been on a constant quest to explore new musical vistas and hone my own technical and composition skills.

The music education in my native country is somewhat limited and not nearly as open or developed as it is in London, which is why I am attracted to the enriching, inspiring environment of your master’s program. In addition, I look forward to experiencing a new culture and interacting with diverse groups of people, which will broaden both my personal and musical horizons considerably. As a young child, I often played the piano and sang songs with my mother. After learning the basics of piano, I soon began playing pop music by ...
