当然,由于申请的学校(学院)不同,问题也会有所变化。下面对法学院、医学院及其他各类研究生院分别介绍有关要求。
法学院
由于法律行业要求研究人员或从业人员都具有很强的文字表达能力,法学院比其他类型的学院更加注重从",个人陈述",中体察申请人传情达义和缜密推理的能力。因此,法学院评审委员会更看重的是从申请人的陈述中,他们能发现什么,而不是陈述文章的长短。
商学院
商学院的申请材料中往往包含考察申请人是否具有成为经理、领导人员和团队成员的潜质。以下是三个常见的要求:
--Describe a situation in which you were compelled to take a stand against the majority. How did this experience strengthen your understanding of leadership?
--Discuss a significant accomplishment that demonstrates your potential as a leader and a manager.
--Describe a situation in which you were part of a group working to solve a problem and your contribution to that goal.
这三个问题分别从与压力抗衡、领导潜质和合作精神三个方面入手考察申请人的素质。
医学院
标准的AMCAS(American Medical College Application Service, 美国医学院申请服务中心)仅要求申请人提供一份&ldquo,个人陈述&rdquo,,而各个医学陆军的附加申请材料则常有关于以往经历的问题。
其他各类研究生院
申请人通常需在",个人陈述",中说明自己的学术研究兴趣所在及长期计划。
