Quotes:

As part of my Matura exam in Poland (the equivalent to A-levels) I studied a subject called community knowledge which is a kind of introduction to sociology studies. I really enjoyed finding out about societies and changes in how people live. I'd like to pursue a career in human resource management and I think this will be a good preparation for that.
