Question
I am a sophomore at Mt. Hebron High School, currently taking an Independent Resource G/T course, which is a college-level course that allows students like myself to research an area of interest. My area of interest is anesthesiology and anesthesiologist. I am very interested in this area because it has benefited many patients who go under surgery of any kind. It also changed my perspective about being “under the knife” and pain associated with surgery. In other words, it gave the world of medicine a new advancement.
  In the past month, I have worked diligently, gathering and research information on anesthesiology. I have even complied an annotated source list. As you recalled, I also emailed you with various questions and was very happy to hear your reply. However, during the school year, i will be alot on anesthesiology; therefore, I hope to find an advisor. I was wondering if you would be willing to be advisor. The job isnt very time consuming,  but it is very beneficial to me. If you decide to be my advisor , please give me your email, address, and phone #.

Thankyou in advance for your time. YOur timely response will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
KImchi Nguyen
