Top 3 moments (starred)
1. Family moved to a new city when I was 12. ★
2. A teacher who inspired me to love science. ★

Why one starred moment mattered (2–3 sentences)
The teacher who inspired me to love science mattered because they made difficult topics feel exciting and showed me how to ask better questions. Their encouragement convinced me to join the science club, which led to the project that won the regional fair and helped me feel confident about a future in STEM.
Sentence starters you can use

- This mattered to me because...
