High School Concert Report
My high school’s logo is a crest with four quadrants, each with a unique symbol, including a Trojan helmet, a book and quill, a harp, and a maple leaf.

Both sides of music are highly enjoyable and have shaped me into a versatile student that uses music as a way to enjoy life.

This is the reason I am applying to University of Wisconsin-Madison. I am plan to continue following the four quadrants from my high school and apply them to my college life; being involved in the community, pursuing academic excellence, and becoming a successful, student that does not only thrive in class but also outside of class are all obtainable at University of
