Thirty-two-year-old john wood is a surgeon at a famous Boston hospital."During the first two years of high school.I found biology very difficult.My report cards always said things like'must try harder' or'john ought to choose non-science classes'.This was a disaster for someone who had always dreamed of becoming a docter.I was so discouraged that l dropped out of high school at 16 and started working at a local supermarket.
"One evening I saw a docunentary about Albert Einstein According to the documentary,Einstein had done really badly at school. I began to think that if Einstein could succeed,then I may have a chance,too. I didn't want to leave my job,so I decided to go to night schook to finish high school. Within two years I applied to colkege and was accepted into a pre-med program!
"I've often thought I should contact the reporter from the Einstein documentary and thank him. As for the biology teacher, I might contact het,too,one day-but not to thank her!
