我想你说的是personal statement。这个并没有一个固定的格式,只要说明自己的长处以及为什么自己想去学这个专业,就可以了。每段之间要很连贯,并且能够在不经意中写出你的长处及你所做过的事情最好。一般PS长短不限,1-2页当然最好。
如何表现自己才是个人陈述的最大魅力,如果你去按照模版来写的话,那对方学校看到的又会是一封毫无创意的很无聊的个人介绍。
我申请读研究生的时候写过这样一个,申请了五所虽不是常青藤但也是前150的美国大学,百发百中,希望能够给你做些参考!
The story doesn’t begin with “a long, long time ago”.
It was only recently that I realized what my “real” career would be. I have dreamed of becoming a scientist, a teacher, an ice cream vendor, and all sorts of different people when I was a kid. However, I knew these dreams would not become true the day I was determined to become an entrepreneur.
Yes, an entrepreneur, maybe not so big and established, but small and successful. And why I wanted to be an entrepreneur?
I have been holding part-time media jobs since I was in high school in China. This media experience takes me to the world that is called “business”. Being a part-time journalist for the Beijing Youth Daily and the Middle School Times in China and a part-time special New York correspondent for the Global Times (a newspaper in China), I have interviewed some entrepreneurs. Every successful entrepreneur has a million stories to tell. Every story of success demonstrates an entrepreneur’s in-depth knowledge in business, quick response to the ever-changing marketplace, and confidence in his/her own ability to succeed. It was simply fascinating to just hear these stories.
However, besides writing down these entrepreneurs’ successes, I kept asking myself one question: can I become one of them? This one little question has awakened the “business” side of myself.
Running a business is not easy. What’s the first thing? You have to know what you are going to run. Living in New York, I have had quite a few inspirations by observing this world’s financial and business center. I often said to myself, “oh, this thing’s gonna be a hit if I can bring it to the public,” or, “this service’s so cool, and the best part is that no one has even thought about it!” These daydreams were soon hit by the reality: how can I manage to present something to the public?
That was why I chose marketing as my undergraate major. I believe that marketing, more than accounting and management, is something that you need to be trained with. Accounting folks are almost always good at math, and management people almost always have ambition and leadership in their hearts. As for marketing, you may be creative, but creativity may be largely found only one part of marketing that is called “advertising and promotion”. There are a lot more to learn. As a marketing major, I was exposed to the internationally accepted marketing concepts, such as the four P’s (Proct, Price, Place, and Promotion), as well as the American way of doing marketing, such as strict rules on bribery when it comes to promotion and other business activities.
However, besides marketing classes, other business classes are just as important as marketing courses. The functional areas of business are integrated. And I know a successful businessperson may be specialized in one of these areas, but he/she will also know about how other areas are functioned. So I took some accounting, finance, and management classes to build myself as a businessperson, but not only a marketer.
My undergraate marketing classes went so smoothly that I began to think maybe I would become a good entrepreneur after I graate with my Bachelor of Science in Marketing. Well, I was partially wrong. Right now I am taking the undergraate capstone class and having a team of three people to run a business in a simulated game. I can read the financial reports, calculate ratios, and utilize the results in the decision-making and management of the business. However, when it comes to more complicated financial problems, I have to look up my big, thick finance book and find the solutions. This makes me think about the real world. In the real, fast-paced business environment, no one will allow you to look up your old college books and find a solution to a serious problem because by the time you finished reading, your whole business might be gone.
Then I put in some serious thoughts into my pursuit of career goal. I don’t want to become just a marketer. I want to become an entrepreneur. And a successful entrepreneur needs to know everything of all the functional areas of business. Of course books and real-life experience may help me to succeed, but I don’t believe these can show me a prosperous business as fast as does learning on campus. Systematical learning in business, especially in finance, will help me make better decisions later in my career. So a Master’s degree in finance area is a must on my way to success.
Now the story of me becoming an entrepreneur doesn’t end here because I know that after getting my Master’s degree in finance area, I will be ready.
