About me…
Last research paper…
The last research paper that I wrote was for a Abnormal
Psychology class, where the paper focused on comparing one
disorder to another. The two disorders I compared were obsessive-
compulsive and paranoid.
If I had to choose a research topic today…
I would choose how pre-workout supplements improve
lactate threshold and performance level in sedentary older adults
because I want to know if pre-workout supplement are as effective
for older people as they are for younger population.

About me…
Experience presenting..
The last time I presented was in undergrad where we had to
present as a group for an experiment of our choosing. We had to
choose an exercise physiology experiment and collect data and
present those data's as a PowerPoint presentation. I personally had
fun doing the experiments but I was nervous presenting since I am
not good with public speaking. Overall, the experience taught me a
lot, but I wish my presenting skills were better.
What do you expect from this course?
I hope to learn how to write better research papers by using
scholarly articles. Also I hope the assignments help us to write the
final project.
