Key points of writing application for studying in the United States
First, we should do enough articles on the topic selection.
It is very important to choose a topic with characteristics and worth studying. The topic should not be empty, and the research content should be clear and specific. As the saying goes, "Interlacing is like a mountain." The answers to these questions vary from major to major. Then the determination of the subject is very important. In fact, that is to say, before you really start writing a research plan, you must first understand what you want to study. What is the problem worth studying? What needs to be noted here is that this thing to be studied must not be a big and empty thing, but must be a specific problem point. Azure provides professional guidance for writing research plans. If you don't understand anything, you can come to the school for consultation.
At the same time, it should be noted that before writing a research plan, you should choose a tutor who matches your research direction. In the past, when a student wanted to pass the interview, the professor told him regretfully that his major direction was not in line with his own research direction, so he had to be turned away.
Second, the research content should be short and clear, not too much? .
Briefly summarize the existing research results related to this topic, and briefly describe my research summary so far.
This paragraph briefly writes about the mature theory of the field you want to study during your graduate study in the United States, or who is engaged in this research. Of course, you can also put the research results of the tutor you want to apply for, (maybe it will add impression points ~)
Remember to quote here and have a source. Don't mix your own understanding with other people's research results and respect academics. This part is well written, which can also reflect from the side that you have made a lot of efforts in this field you want to study, so that serious student tutors will like it.
Thirdly, the writing of research content needs to be analyzed on the basis of relevant basic knowledge.
The writing of this part should be clear, definite and specific, and it cannot be generalized. Then we should write clearly what is the purpose of our research and what problems we should devote ourselves to solving. The most important thing is our research plan. In fact, it's easy to say, just pay attention to one thing. That is, research steps should be combined with research methods. Just writing what I want to do first and then what I want to do is actually unbelievable. We should write clearly what we want to do at the end of each step.
Fourth, choose the corresponding research methods according to your own specific situation.
The commonly used methods are comparative research and empirical research. This part is not difficult.
Also, some students will ask whether the scientific research plans of American universities must be written in Japanese.
You can choose Japanese or English, and most of the plans are mainly Japanese. After writing, pay attention to the teacher's help to correct words, typos, word order and other problems. Professors and tutors in universities are not teachers in language schools. They will seriously correct the typo word for word! You know, there are many Americans competing with you for the postgraduate exam, so your Japanese wording must be rigorous and rigorous.
What small details should I pay attention to when writing an application for studying in the United States?
1. Talk freely.
If you haven't participated in many volunteer activities, you are not a star athlete at school, or the most awesome role you have played is the silent elm on the stage, then don't pretend to be a big shot. Dishonesty will increase your chances of being rejected. Don't be afraid to tell the truth, even if it doesn't seem to work.
2. Left side door
We have all heard of urban legends. A girl gave her flip-flops for travel; A boy lost the opportunity to study at the University of Michigan because he showed a poem he wrote for Wolverine in Michigan on YouTube ... There are so many gods who "cross the ocean and show their magical powers". However, you should know that the key word is "he just doesn't like you". People don't like you, and nothing you can do will help. Remember: this is the exception, not the rule.
Step 3 start quoting carefully
If you live for Shakespeare's famous words, or Kennedy's patriotic appeal has really changed your life, then it is understandable to share their wisdom with others-after all, they are really smart. However, the person in charge of college enrollment wants to know about you, not them. If you think a famous saying really has a lot to do with what you want to write, it is enough to quote one sentence. Combine famous sayings with personal experiences, such as the strong shock when you first hear this sentence, or a person you love often says this sentence to you. The most important thing is to choose the famous sayings of the upper class (if you want to quote miley cyrus's famous sayings, the gods can't help you).
4. Talking about volunteer experience in general, lacking originality
Volunteering in South Africa is the best thing that has ever happened to you. You made a lot of good friends, had a good time, met some great people and learned a lot ... (Most things are ignored here) We believe this is true. But what's the use of writing this? Thousands of other applicants have written these, just like you. How can people choose you from the crowd? It's really urgent, students are human!
It's not unsociable. Rules are meant to be broken. I especially remind the university not to write "where I went and where I helped others", but to write about the specific difficulties you encountered or a specific conversation. When you are writing, you can ask yourself, "Will anyone else write this except me?" If the answer is yes, you'd better go back and think about it.
There are obvious mistakes in this article.
What kind of articles are most likely to be eliminated? I didn't check it again!
Even if you are a master of words, let others read your article. There may be spelling mistakes, so you must show them to others, and others can also give guidance on the content of your article. I remind everyone to read your article aloud in front of others-even if you are shy. Some sentences are great to write on paper, but they are far from the point to read.
6. The article overemphasizes the sad body.
Everyone faces death in his own unique way. They are either favorite pets, old friends or grandparents. There is no doubt that death will have a great influence on you, especially when you face death for the first time. But again, this should not be the keynote of your article. At the end of your sad article, you should not draw the meaning of birth and the true meaning of death, but your reflection, or how this affects your life trajectory.
7. The content is too ordinary
Smart people should do this: if you want to apply for a school, you should know something about it (it is a good choice to state its location at the beginning). Too many students forget their starting point when writing articles. It is conceivable that how many admissions officers want to cross their articles with red pens.
