Theatergoers watching my high school’s spring musical “Anything Goes” may have noticed one eager and aptly-named AngelGrace smiling from under her blonde 30s wig and tap dancing her way through the entire show. However, they were oblivious to the physical and mental exhaustion this energetic performer endured to achieve that place onstage.
I was born with hyperpronated ankles which causes chronic foot pain. After fruitless physical therapy sessions, my doctors recommended surgery. Not one to miss any school, I elected to have both surgeries the summer before my junior year, only fourteen days apart.
Thus, I spent my entire summer on the couch, nauseous, frustrated, and elevating both ankles above heart level at all times. When school started, I was just starting to use crutches to move around clumsily.
A few weeks after the beginning of school, our choreographer started weekly after-school tap workshops in preparation for“Anything Goes” in the spring. Immediately, I made up my mind to go. While everyone clicked out their time steps and shuffle off to buffaloes, I sat in a chair in my ace bandages and orthopedic shoes, frustrated, humiliated, and trying to mimic their movements. I was a complete novice, but slowly, slowly, I learned how to tap.
After an entire semester of hard work, the“Anything Goes” cast list was posted, and I received a featured tap role. Throughout the show, Angel Grace’s heels clicked the stage with well-practiced precision, her upturned face glowing with elation and triumph.

Dear x,
In the deepest recesses of my memories is the boulevard lined with Chineseparasol trees located outside my house. When I was just ten years old, my fatherput me at the back of his bicycle and rode me every weekend to attend Englishclasses in the nearby community center (English was not part of elementaryschool education in China at that time). On this road of questing for my firstwestern education, I, as a girl who loved to indulge in observations andmeditations, kept an observant eye on the changing colors of the leaves all theyear round. The rotation of seasons and the cyclical changes of the treesimpressed me with the transitoriness of life and the urgency of making my lifesubstantial within its transitory span. My present application for an advanceddegree program at your esteemed university is by far the most important step inmy relentless efforts to make my life substantial.
Dealing with figures has been our family tradition. As my mother is astatistician and my grandma a certified public account, as a teenager I had alsocommenced my observations and reflections on figures and calculations in thestatements and reports that they had prepared with strong curiosity andinterest. This interested strengthened my love for mathematics, often describedas the “gymnastics of abstract thinking.” From elementary school to middleschool, it was virtually a rule for me to achieve straight A’s in almost everycourse related to mathematics, a talent which has always made me feel proud ofmyself. Deep in my subconscious, I knew that a career related to mathematicswould fit me most perfectly. Therefore, when I gained my , I chose to specialize in Mathematics at Beijing Normal University. Ibelieve that this specialty has provided me with a perfect arena to give vent tomy passion for mathematics. My dedication to studies in mathematics andeffective strategies of learning, plus voluminous readings of technicalliterature in various academic journals, have led to my top third ranking in myclass and a number of major scholarships.
My greatest passion for learning mathematics was stimulated when I came todiscover the foundational importance in social sciences, the essential functionof mathematics behind its abstract concepts and number theories. When I firststudied Advanced Mathematics, I was not clear about the real use of theories. This kind of puzzlement lasted until I found that thegenuine function of mathematics lied in its ability to solve problems in thereal world objectively and scientifically, to develop human wisdom, to enableone to arrive at higher horizons and to examine problems with insights anddiscriminations. The courses that have particularly fascinated me most areMathematical Analysis, Higher Geometry, Probability Theory, MathematicalStatistics, and Matrix Construction in Mathematics. Those courses allowed me toexperience the charm of mathematics’ symbolic language and that of , in addition to its omnipresent utility.
As an undergraduate, I am most proud of my experience of constructing theSocial and Economic Growth Model as a team member representing our universityduring a mathematical modeling contest in Beijing. As our three-person teamlacked the experience of applying theoretical knowledge to practical problems,we felt at an impasse in the face of the challenging task. I took some time toexamine in detail all the mathematical models we had learned in class andproposed the idea of dividing the entire modeling into individual modules andpiecing them together to form a complete model. Eventually our team was awardedsecond prize at this provincial contest. In retrospect, it is precisely thisexperience that aroused my serious interest in the application of mathematics inthe realms of economics and finance. To further develop myself in thisdirection, I studied a lot of optional courses including macroeconomics,microeconomics, e-commerce, etc. Thenceforward, I developed a new objective—tocombine my knowledge of mathematics with economics and finance and to exploitthe function of mathematics in social life.
My undergraduate thesis, entitled Vector Quantity and Geometry, thoughpurely theoretical in appearance, is actually a vivid description of howmathematical theories can be applied to reality. It focuses on precise analysisof those potential yet absolute relationships between different entities and howwe can uncover and examine those relationships from mathematical by the department academic council as “Class A”, the thesis has beenaccepted by the editorial board of our departmental journal for publication.
Apart from cultivating my rigorous attitude for scientific research anddeveloping my analytical and problem-solving abilities, I have taken an activepart in extracurricular activities. With my strengths in mathematics, I passed anumber of certification tests with much facility, including Microsoft CertifiedProfessional, Microsoft Office-Use Specialist, and LOTUS 1-2-3. I have beencorrespondent and editor for our campus radio broadcasting station and campuswebsite. My English proficiency qualified me as a volunteer working for theBeijing Worldwide Chinese Businessmen Meeting. In summer vacation, I workedpart-time at a local accounting firm where I exercised my knowledge ofmathematics and skills of electronic computation to establish for the firm afinancial database. I also worked on preparing business accounting plans anddigitalized financial management plans for the firm’s clients.
My experiences of social practices have permitted me to understand howmathematics can best be used. As far as I am concerned, my lack of advancedacademic knowledge, especially my lack of in-depth understanding of economicsand finance, and my lack of formal and systematic trainings in those fields,have constituted my “bottleneck” for further academic development. The overallsituation in China is that there is an oversupply of theoretical mathematicianswhile applied mathematicians are sorely needed. Interdisciplinary subjectsbetween mathematics and economics, such as financial mathematics, actuaryscience, economic engineering, and mathematical economics, are in China. The consequence is that China’s economic development willbe seriously hampered for the lack of those important sciences. Great Britainplays a leading role in the world both in financial sciences and in two factors have motivated me to seek advanced studies there.
In this Personal Statement, I would like to indicate to you unequivocallymy intention to specialize in financial mathematics, mathematical economics, orsimilar programs of an interdisciplinary nature. My choice is motivated by theconsideration that in China virtually all financial professionals do not possessa strong background in mathematics, thus they rely heavily on foreign technicalmodels and concepts. However, China’s economic conditions and models differ fromthose in Western countries and any unquestioning importation would becounterproductive. My plan is to probe into the possibility of developing someeconomic and financial models that best fit in with China’s circumstances basedon a critical analysis of Western models and extensive practices. Projects inthose areas will be what I am most concerned with and interested in.
London School of Economics and Politics is reputed for its time-honoredhistory, respected for its distinctive status in economics and finance, alongwith its unparalleled research and pedagogical standards. Advanced educationalconcepts and methodologies there would undoubtedly broaden my vision andperspectives, enhance my fundamental skills in devising and launchinglarge-scale cases. Most importantly, for a woman like me who has a penchant forEnglish culture in general and English literature in particular, going to studyin Britain will foster my spirit of independence the way Jane Eyre did. Nothingcan delight me more than to observe and to experience, with heart and soul, thehistorical, cultural legacies of such a great country.
Yours sincerely,

Pursue Sport Pursue Beauty
In China, the term Sport and the term Physical Education are and practically. That is not right. For me sport is a way to feel thethrilling experience of life; pursuing nothing but beauty. To promote sportsspirit I ran for the presidency of the Athletics Department in Student Unionrather than the president of the Union.
Running for the position had no surprises, not only because I was well knownas an athlete in the basketball court and track and field, but also becausenobody was interested in the position. Still I was excited and I swore I wouldmake sports exciting to everybody on campus.
For the first organized activity, I chose what I was good at — the sophomore tournament, I organized a less serious game in order toinvite students， interests in sports and basketball. But the survey resultdisappointed me: only five teams from different classes were interested in abasketball tournament. No way could NBA games be exciting with only five teamsto compete with each other; audiences would get bored without long termexpectation and anticipation. “So what should we do?” I asked. “Nothing，” onevice president replied. “There should be something that we can do to make itright,” I said hopefully. “If girls could join that would be good，” a boy aBingo, that’ s great, we could modify the rule for ourbasketball game，” a girl added. We shouted, yelled, argued, and eventually, weagreed: our game would have three players instead of five, regardless of sex andage while teams are only split by Junior and Senior, and even teachers couldjoin in the senior game.
At the end of twenty days’ solicitation, we got thirty-two teams registeredin total; almost all with boys and girls mixed, and five teams with teachersincluded. In consideration of so many new-comers for basketball, we slightlychanged the rules: we changed the three seconds violation into five and easedthe traveling violation, and made each half of the game be 15 minutes. “This isnot ‘Basketball, anymore; it is ‘our basketball’，” the girl who had firstsuggested changing the rules claimed.
The basketball tournament changed the atmosphere of campus. People startedbecoming interested in sports, which brought them excitement, relief, andlaughs. Sports added so much fun to our lives and it also changed our attitudeto our studies and team-ship.
The success of the game also brought credit for me. After the game, I wasassigned to take charge in organizing 6th YHHS Recreational Sports Meeting, YHHSSpring Sports Meeting, and YH High School Sophomore Basketball Tournament. Ilearned so much in organizing these events, and I was proud of my team. Withouttheir enthusiastic support I wouldn’ t have enjoyed so much of the work - anopportunity to pursue something - beauty that gave me the same feeling aswinning a sport game.

美国留学文书范文7
(一)独特的成长环境
Why: 美国学校很注重多样性(diversity)，所以学校在挑选学生的时候都比较prefer一些有着独特文化背景，教育背景或个人成长背景的学生。例如你来自一些少数民族或者来自一些民族特征比较明显的地区如西北地区等，往往不同地区的人们性格会有或多或少的不一样的，这就要看你自己对于自己的民族或所在地区的深刻理解了。但你不妨问一下自己以下的问题：
1、你觉得你所生长的地区赋予了你哪些独特性?
2、这个地区的人民有哪些显著的特点?
3、为什么你会觉得你生长在这个地区是特别的?
4、你觉得这个地区对于你成长有哪些帮助?
5、你会为自己出生在这个地区而感到自豪吗?为什么?
(二)身边人对你的影响：爸爸?妈妈?老师?或是电影、书上的人物?
Why:除了学术方面，学校都想了解申请人的人生观和价值观，通过学生所崇拜的对象学校可以看出学生对于是与非的分辨。美国留学申请文书这里主要考核的是学生的价值观还有通过对你影响最深的人推断出你以后的成长轨迹。
(三)才艺
Why: 通常美国留学申请文书的Essay题目里面都会有一条是关于课外活动的，主要考核的是学生的各种能力、性格特点等方面。例如你喜欢弹钢琴，不妨问一下自己以下的问题：
1、为什么会学钢琴?
2、你是如何进行你的钢琴练习的?
3、钢琴演奏对于你来说意味着些什么?
4、描述一下你演奏最出色的一次当时的情形?
5、演奏练习辛苦吗?期间是否有一些不寻常的事情发生过?例如挑战?挫折?自己的心得体会又是什么?
6、当你苦练了那么久，最后在过级考委面前真正地弹奏你所熟悉的曲子你的感受是什么?
7、钢琴演奏带给你的乐趣是什么?
(四)志愿者经历
Why: 美国学校看重的并不是你的成绩有多么多么的优秀，你曾经拿过多少奖项，而更多的是看重学生的志愿者经历，而这些恰恰是中国学生所缺失的。不妨问一下自己：
1、曾经做过的志愿者活动是什么?当时的情形是怎样的?
2、描述一个情景，而这个情景是真正能够触动你有想当志愿者的冲动的?
3、志愿者活动对于你来说意味着什么?
(五)学科的选择
Why: 通常申请文书会问你为什么要选择它们的商学院或者为什么要选择金融or经济学，这里主要考核的是学生的academic potential以及make sure学生做出这样的选择并非是盲目的。那你就不妨问一下自己：
1、为什么这个专业?是什么使你有这个想法的?别人的影响?还是你个人的兴趣?
2、选择这个专业对于你来说意味着什么?
3、你未来的职业目标是什么?
4、你对这个专业认识有多少?
(六)学校的选择(why our university)
Why：这个是一个常见的问题，就算学校没有要求申请人写此类的essay,申请人也应该在PS的最后阐明自己选择这所学校的理由。切忌大而空的回答，很多学生都喜欢说因为学校声望高、名气好、地理位置佳等作为自己选择学校的理由，但这只会让学校觉得你是在盲目地选校而不是根据自身的需求出发来选择学校。所以不妨问一下自己：
1、你的职业目标是什么?这个职业目标需要你掌握些什么知识或技能?
2、这所学校的课程设置如何?能否满足你的学习需求和未来职业目标需求?
3、这所学校吸引你的地方在哪里?
总之，美国留学申请文书写作的总原则就是一定要围绕着自己的特点来进行写作和规划，最好出自己在性格方面的优势和特点，同时挖掘素材，不能写成千篇一律的毫无特色的流水账式的申请文书。如果没有认真挖掘出你自身的素材，或者未能彻底对你进行审视，都会导致缺乏个性的大众化。
美国留学文书范文8
Some of my hardest decisions take place in the booth of a restaurant, so choosing a major has been an absolutely agonizing process for me. I fancied subject areas from English to chemistry, but I finally (hesitantly) decided on double majoring in mathematics and economics and minoring in French. My most concrete interest, mathematics, originates from my introduction to calculus and the realization that the breadth and depth of the mathematical world extend beyond straight numerical calculations. I believe that MIT’s superior mathematics program will add unimaginably new dimensions to this magical realm that I have only just discovered.
美国留学文书范文9
My love for people is the best part about myself. There is no better feeling than the happiness I find in meeting new people and creating connections with them. My extroverted personality is the root of much of my success in leadership, presentations, and networking. I naturally reach out to people, and as a result, I am able to accomplish projects like establishing a mentoring program for the French Honor Society and a threefold increase in membership for the Asian American Club. However, my outgoing personality made the most memorable impact at the “Conversation with Michelle Obama,” an event for which I was nominated to attend. Through GoogleHangout, several American cities were able to connect to Michelle Obama in South Africa. When the Kansas City group was asked about technology integration in education, the students all froze underneath the limelight. In a burst of courage, I blurted a couple of words and consequently received the microphone to continue. At that moment, it didn’t matter that there were thousands of people around the world including Michelle Obama listening; it was just me and my string of thoughts. I was the only person in Kansas City to speak that day.
I distinguish myself with my enthusiasm, and I easily see myself thriving as a part of the tight-knit community, the risk-taking hacking culture, and the passionately nerdy student population of MIT. After all, I still keep in touch with my lime-green carded tour guide.
