怎样写Statement(七) <br>
Make It Personal! <br>
When I lecture about writing personal statements, I perform the followin <br>
g experiment: I ask my audience four or five general, superficial questions <br>
about their backgrounds and goals and ask for a show of hands. For example, <br>
"How many of you feel your courses have prepared you to succeed in graduate <br>
or professional school?" "How many of you have had work or volunteer experie <br>
nce that is relevant to your career goals?" OK, you have the idea. Usually, <br>
all or the overwhelming majority of the hands go up. Then I ask, "Why did I <br>
ask these questions?" Someone will usually say, "Because we're all the same. <br>
" <br>
But of course my audience is not "all the same." And you are not the sam <br>
e as those you are competing against--unless you write on a very general and <br>
superficial level. If you write on the same level that I asked my questions <br>
, you will fail to distinguish yourself from your competition. <br>
You need to use your unique experiences and specific details from those <br>
experiences to bring you and your essay to life. Don't write about volunteer <br>
ing for the homeless; write about Joe, the homeless, Vietnam vet with the to <br>
othless smile who taught you something specific that you will carry with you <br>
. Don't write about your trip to Europe; write about watching a Gypsy troupe <br>
perform a Rachmaninoff concerto that you had played many times, but never u <br>
nderstood before sitting under that grimy circus tent in the Ukraine. Many s <br>
tudents can write about volunteering for the homeless or traveling in Europe <br>
, but only you can write about your memorable experiences and their impact u <br>
pon you. Those unique anecdotes will be how admissions officers remember you <br>
and your essay. <br>
In addition to distinguishing you from your competition, experiences and <br>
anecdotes are much more interesting to read than generalities and platitude <br>
s. Think about the lecturers who just give the theory and principles and com <br>
pare them to those who bring the theory alive with real examples and anecdot <br>
es. I'll take the latter any day. <br>
Do you want to write a memorable essay that is truly revealing of your u <br>
nique experiences and personality? Use specifics. They will bring your essay <br>
to life. <br>
