由于中美教育差异较大,很多学业成绩的高中生都没能被美国名校录取。其背后的原因就是大家忽视了文书写作。那么2017年美国本科留学文书有哪些呢?
申请美国大学最常用的两个申请系统是Common Application和CAAS。这两个申请系统中都有各自的文书题目,各位准备留学的小伙伴快来看看吧!
首先,我们先来介绍Common Application系统里面的文书。Common Application是一个广泛使用的大学申请系统,学生注册之后就可以在系统中上传成绩单和文书,之后提交给学校,非常方便。今年,Common Application进行了文书的改革,从去年的5个增加到了7个,分别是:
1. Some students have a background, identity, interest or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story. [No change]
2. The lessons we take from obstacles we encounter can be fundamental to later success. Recount a time when you faced a challenge, setback or failure. How did it affect you, and what did you learn from the experience? [Revised]
3. Reflect on a time when you questioned or challenged a belief or idea. What prompted your thinking? What was the outcome? [Revised]
4. Describe a problem you’ve solved or a problem you’d like to solve. It can be an intellectual challenge, a research query, an ethical dilemma — anything that is of personal importance, no matter the scale. Explain its significance to you and what steps you took or could be taken to identify a solution. [No change]
5. Discuss an accomplishment, event or realization that sparked a period of personal growth and a new understanding of yourself or others. [Revised]
6. Describe a topic, idea or concept you find so engaging that it makes you lose all track of time. Why does it captivate you? What or who do you turn to when you want to learn more? [New]
7. Share an essay on any topic of your choice. It can be one you’ve already written, one that responds to a different prompt, or one of your own design. [New]
接下来,我们来看看CAAS系统中的文书题目。CAAS系统中一共有5个文书题目,其中4个是“命题作文”,1个是“自命题作文”。5个题目分别是:
1. Tell a story from your life,describing an experience that either demonstrates your character or helped toshape it.
2. Describe a time when you made ameaningful contribution to others in which the greater good was your focus. Discussthe challenges and rewards of making your contribution.
3. Has there been a time when you’ve had a long-cherished or accepted belief challenged? How did you respond?How did the challenge affect your beliefs?
4. What is the hardest part ofbeing a teenager now? What’s the best part? What advice would you give ayounger sibling or friend (assuming they would listen to you)?
5. Submit an essay on a topic of your choice.
