Thank you We sneak in and here's your shmoop too

00:05

sure brought to you by grim reality of those people

00:09

who went to med school and then found out how

00:10

little they'd make as pediatricians Yeah but they're doing good

00:14

for the world But i am a lot All right

00:17

Are we skim in maria's dreams here let's See what

00:22

maria wants to do with the world when she has

00:24

four hundred thousand dollars in debt Okay maria would like

00:29

to make her thesis stating in sentences One two three

00:32

clearer and more effective Which is the best way for

00:36

her to do this And here the potential answers graduate

00:40

from I want to be a doctor All right so

00:44

we've got three disconnected senses that need to become one

00:47

concise thesis statement Somehow we've got to get these sentences

00:50

Teo mingle Maybe a potluck dinner How about that Or

00:53

we'll chop out some words and stick them all back

00:55

together in a way that makes sense Yeah That's Better

00:57

Okay well a makes an attempt to do that When

01:00

i graduate from high school i will want to be

01:03

a pediatrician And for that i will attend college and

01:06

study medicine It's way too wordy And to be really

01:09

just plain awkward it goes for this weird slam dunk

01:12

but falls on its face Trashcan full of dirty diapers

01:15

Not good All right well see isn't going to make

01:18

steam either Once again the wording is awkward Sorry See

01:21

Better luck next time senses joyce bea is concise which

01:25

is great I want to be a doctor and therefore

01:27

i plan to attend college and study medicine But it's

01:30

a little too concise leaves out some stuff We need

01:32

the part about maria specifically wanting to be a pediatrician

01:35

Otherwise that thesis is incomplete He is the right answer

01:38

I have always wanted to be a pediatrician So after

01:41

high school i plan to attend college and study medicine

01:44

and then go heavily into debt Actually that we added

01:48

anyway this sentence concisely tells us that maria wants to

01:51

be a pediatrician and gives us the steps she's going

01:53

to take to be one Gonna be a lot of

01:55

work costs a lot of money But one day helping

01:58

the shrieking snotty bratty children in the world will make 00:02:01.038 --> [endTime] it all worthwhile Buy him a lot
