I am keen on sports
and outdoor pursuits. I have enjoyed a range of
activities from countryside
walks to
kayaking and abseiling. Because of this I feel I
would particularly enjoy the fieldwork
the course offers. I have been able to
combine this interest in sport with a part time
job as a
leisure attendant at local
sport centres. As part of this post I was asked to
lead a youth sports
and activities
group which aims to promote sport among young
people in my area. This activity
has
also allowed me to introduce other young people to
activities that I have enjoyed. This role
has also helped me to develop skills
that would help me while I am at university. The
sports
group involves arranging
individual sessions as well as trips out
This has improved my organisational
skills, which has reflected my ability to combine
part-time
work with college
effectively. Working as part of a team and serving
members of the public has
also improved
my social skills, making me more confident when
working with others
I wish to study at
university, not only for the knowledge that I will
gain from the course, but also
for the
experience of university life has to offer. During
my two years at college I have
participated in various activities. For
example, I represented the college at an open day,
volunteered as a collage council
representative for my form group, participated in
a blood
donation scheme and was also
involved in the shoebox appeal. These activities
meant that I
have to be confident,
approachable and polite. I feel these are
characteristics that will enable
me to
get involved with student life at university
My ambition is to participate in
conservation work abroad, before gaining
experience in a
career based in this
area. I feel the experience outlined above and the
knowledge I will gain
from the course
will enable me to achieve this ambition.

As with science in general, I find it
interesting, often fascinating, and I feel that I
could gain
much from studying it at
university University has always appealed to me
because of the
wealth of experiences it
has to offer as a student. Although I enjoy
English Literature and
Chemistry: I am
especially keen to study Biology and Psychology.
For me, the main appeal of
the course
lies in the variety of topics that will be
covered. The aspects of Biology I find
particularly interesting are
neuroscience and how the immune system functions
and responds.
In Psychology, I am very
interested in what makes people unique and how
different factors
shape our personality
At present I am employed at McDonald's
where within one year of work I got promoted to a
Floor Manager. Then I rapidly got
promoted as a shift Manager. Being at this
position it gives
me numerous of
responsibilities. For instance I am responsible
for the whole resturant,
ensuring the
good communication flow exists between the crew
members, correct procedures
are
followed, restaurant goals are achieved and
ensuring that every customer gets 100%
customer satisfaction
This
experience especially allowed me to use my
interpersonal skills to the full
. In my
reference, my employer remarked on my
willingness to learn, my enthusiasm and initiative
as
well as my ability to work
independently and as part of a team
I
have a variety of hobbies outside school. When
time allows, I find playing football, tennis, and
listening music, a change from my
studies. My other pursuits include more physical
activities
such as attending the gym,
dancing and cycling
At present, I am
putting most of my effort into achieving the best
grades in my 'course to allow
me to
reach the next target in my education. I
understand that university life will be very
challenging, but I am confident that it
will give me the best chance to achieve my
potential, and
lead the way forward to
a successful career. I hope that this application
indicates that I am a
promising
candidate.

I chose engineering as a
life pursuit because I wish to engage in both.
This choice was
enhanced by a personal
yearning to apply all that I learn; I wanted to be
able to implement my
physical and
mathematical abilities in real life situations. I
feel higher education would enable
me
to realise this aim.
Although all
aspects of physics and engineering intrigue me, I
am particularly interested in the
medical application of these two
disciplines. When considering which field I might
enter I
realised that the only
discipline that appealed to me, other than
engineering, was medicine.
Having
researched the crossover between medicine and
engineering I decided that
bioengineering provided the perfect
blend.
In order to improve my grasp of
A-level Physics and Mathematics, and develop a
better
understanding of the options
available to me in Higher Education, I have made
extensive use
of the online lectures of
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I
was particularly
receptive to the
teaching methods of the Physics lecturer,
Professor Lewin.
Supplementary reading
has widened my horizons and encouraged me to
examine elements
above and beyond the
A-level course. Some of the books I have
encountered include 'A Brief
History of
Time' by Stephen Hawking and also 'Mr. Tompkins in
Wonderland' by Nobel Prize
winner,
George Gamow. The latter was more than simply 'a
physics book' to me - the
presentation
of the physical principals within a love story
proved to be extremely captivating.
Following the debate regarding
students' declining abilities and the 'dumbing
down' of the
A-levels I have undertaken
a study of material from the older, and in my
opinion more
challenging, 1996
syllabus. Books such as 'Essential Principles of
Physics' by Whelan and
Hodgson have
been particularly enlightening in this respect.
I feel that theoretical concepts are
easier to understand and more easily absorbed when
they
are tangible and therefore I have
applied to the Year in Industry scheme, hoping
that this will
enhance the application
of my mathematical and physical skills. Due to
personal issues during
the A-level exam
period I was unable to achieve my potential and
did not meet all my predicted
grades.
In order to amend this I have chosen t o retake
some modules during my gap year
whilst
at the same time studying a new subject and
expanding my language skills.
I
consider that my multicultural upbringing,
including 12 years in Japan, Dubai and the Sudan
have led to me being a well-rounded and
colourful person. As a consequence of this time I
benefited by gaining knowledge about
different traditions, an insight into diverse
cultures, and
a furtherance in my
linguistic abilities. This granted me the ability
to adapt to different
environments
swiftly and comfortably, which would explain my
enthusiasm for meeting new
people.
Moreover, the contrast in the living standards in
these different environments has
shown
me the importance of science and technology in our
lives.
Professionals have confirmed for
me that bioengineering is an intellectually
challenging field,
requiring commitment
and motivation. I have always believed in fully
devoting myself to all that
I do, and
with my particular interests and experiences, I
feel that only an opportunity to study
bioengineering at university will
enable me to express my abilities in their
entirety.

I will never forget my experience of
working alongside doctors to fight against the
horrible disease, AA, in
China in 200X.
This work taught me the great impact of disease
control and prevention and motivated me
to apply for the biostatistics program
at Yale University, with the ultimate career goal
of becoming an
influential professional
or researcher in the field. I firmly believe that
my constant thirst for knowledge,
high
regard for the work in the biomedical and public
health fields, and my courageousness will drive my
graduate studies and help me achieve
personal and professional success.
I first became interested in
biostatistics when the AA epidemic breakout in
China in 200X. As a member
of the
University Red Cross Association, I was
responsible for assisting the university hospital
to
publicize disease prevention
methods, distribute medicine, and complete health
surveys. I learned from
that process
the value of survey dates in supplying useful
strategies for disease prediction, prevention
and control. Afterward, when I served
as Vice President of the Student Union, I
organized an introductory
lecture and
health survey about hereditary disease for the
local community. I truly enjoyed these
voluntary public health services, as I
was able to use my knowledge to enhance the
quality of life for my
fellow man.
These achievements gave me the determination to
fully devote myself to public health
services and global health care
development.
My
academic training to this point has provided me
with a wide range of general knowledge and skills
related to the biological sciences.
This training is an excellent first step in
preparing for the professional
career
that I desire. As an undergraduate student in
bioengineering at BB University, I acquired a
solid
foundation in the theoretical
concepts associated with genetics, molecular
biology, immunology, and
biochemistry.
I also gained knowledge in the several areas of
industrial significance, including
bio-
products, fermentation, and biotechnology. In
addition to the comprehensive studies in my major
field,
I received as well extensive
training in mathematics and computer science, both
of which were of great
benefit to my
study of biostatistics, an important area in
various industrial and scientific research
efforts.
For example, as I learned
during my summer internship as an Assistant
Researcher at the DD
Pharmaceutical
Company in 200Y, biostatistics has a vital role in
the development and marketing of new
medicines, in the control of the
quality of products, and in the tracking of
consumer trends, attitudes and
purchases. I have also worked as an
undergraduate research assistant for a map-based
cloning project
in the ZZ Biology
Center, where I used statistical methods to
develop WW genetic markers and to
calculate the probabilities of
recombination. These hands-on training activities
gave me a clearer
understanding of and
a deeper insight into the biostatistics of
biological and clinical problems.
I look forward to
furthering my knowledge of biostatics at Yale
University. Indeed, I believe that Yale’s
dynamic environment coupled with the
emphasis placed on both statistics theory and
real-life biological
issues in the
biostatics program will prepare me well to stand
out in future competition. Therefore, my
well considered decision to choose your
program will certainly help me realize my dreams.
I am confident
that with Yale’s
beneficial guidance and training, I will be well
on the way to beco
ming a noted
professional in the area of public
health.

1. Tough memories played a key role in
my decision
I am determined
to pursue graduate studies engineering in a large
part because both of my
grandmothers
died because the hospitals did not have the
facilities to give them prompt diagnosis and
effective treatment. My paternal
grandmother suffered from cancer, but he doctor
did not know it was
cancer until was
already to late. A few years later, my maternal
grandmother passed away because of a
sudden heart attac
k. To this
day, my mother’s words at her funeral till echo in
my ears:“If only she could
wear a
portable monitor for heart disease, and if only
there was a portable cardiac pacemaker in the
ambulance.”
On the strength of my strong
performance in the 1994 National University
Entrance Examinations, I won
acceptance
into the Tsinghua University, China’s top
engineering school. Without any hesitation, I
chose
to major in biomedical
engineering in its Department of Electrical
Engineering. In making that choice, I
hoped that, one day, I could be more of
a help to patients than doctors, since a doctor
treats patients one
at a time, but the
more effective medical devices I develop can help
many people all the time.
2. My solid academic record
With a clear objecti
ve in my
mind, I made myself a “gifted student” recognized
by the department. In my
class of 32
students, I was consistently a top student. My GPA
for basic courses was 3.75/4.0 and my
GPA for specialized courses was as high
as 3.87/4.0. In my second year in Tsinghua
University, my
academic ranking and
comprehensive ranking were both the highest in my
class, and I was awarded the
first
ranking excellent student scholarship that year. I
was particularly strong in mathematics and
physics,
which I took as fundamental to
every branch of science and technology.
3. My independent research
ability
As a recognized
gifted student, I was one of the first students in
my year to be given the opportunity of
taking part in actual research. In July
1996, I joined the research group for biomedical
instrumentation
and signal processing,
led by Professor Cheng Jiajie, a noted Chinese
term EEG signals. A joint project
between Professor Cheng and the
National Research Center for Engineering and
Technology on
Appliance for Medical
Treatment and Health Care, the system was to
consist of two sub-systems. One
was for
sampling and recording the EEG and other
physiological signals, and the other was for
reviewing
and analyzing the signals. I
was involved in the development of both.
I first built a double-T
band-stop filter network for ultra-weak signals to
serve as an essential part of the
EEG
hardware. As brain waves are extremely weak
signals, only from tens to hundreds microvolt, the
whole system, including the filter
network, had to meet extremely stringent
standards. I designed the
circuit and
its components meticulously. After painstaking
efforts, I successfully set up the filter network.
After that, professor Cheng
assigned me to perfect the clinical EEG software
in recognition of my
computer skills.
In a Windows-based EEG review and analysis
software system, I integrated various
functions of automatic and manual data
scrolling, annotation, grouping, montage, block
marking, data
discarding and
transferring into diskette, filter design and
filtering, compress spectrum array, brain
electrical activity map, power spectrum
estimation, twelve quantity EEG analysis and
statistics. This
cleared away a major
hassle for doctors working in the hospitals. The
software system also adopts
background
data loading and re-sampling of data while
displaying to speed up the scrolling process and
reduce the doctors’ waiting
time.
Through
this project, I was solidly trained in independent
research, much more so than most of my
classmates.
4.
Extracurricular activities
I was a good student not just because I
studied well but also because I actively involved
myself in a
variety of activities. In
these activities, I not only honed my leadership
and communication skills but also
acquired a pioneering spirit and the
ability to do teamwork.
For
much of my undergraduate studies, I served as a
member of the student union council. In 1995 and
1996, I was elected the monitor of my
class. Under my leadership, my class was chosen “A
Class of
Good Academic
Atmo
sphere”, a designation given to
only the best group of students. To take advantage
of my leadership and communication
skills, the department appointed me a counselor to
first-year
students in the school year
between September 1996 to July 1997. In this
position, I advised the
freshmen on the
choice of courses and adaptation to the university
life.
Interested in the
cultural and recreational activities, I helped to
organize, in 1995, the First Beijing Opera
Competition in Tsinghua University. In
December 1996, I organized and participated in
making the first
music video for our
class as our contribution to the department’s art
festival, and it won a second prize.
What I like to emphasize is
that I was one of the founders of the Biomedical
Club in our department. The
purpose of
it is to spread knowledge and exchange ideas in
the rapidly developing biomedical world.
During the past three years, we
successfully fulfilled our goal by means of
regular seminars as well as
visits to
various academic institutions and hospitals.
I became even more active
in extracurricular activities after m third
undergraduate year. In January 1997,
I
went on a trip to ShenZhen, China’s first and most
successful “special economic zone”, as part of a
social investigation group. The far-
reaching economic and technical reforms taught me
a lot outside my
discipline. From June
to August 1998, u worked in the IBM China Research
Laboratory on localization
and system
testing for IBM WorkPad Chinese Applications. It
was an extraordinary experience for me. I
not only tested myself in real
research, but also I learned about advanced
technology and thinking.
During this
time, I attended the IBM Research Summer Jam 98,
which was an event for IBM Research’s
supplemental and summer student
employees to get together and explore the future
of computing. My
creativity displayed
in this Summer Jam won acclaim from IBM Senior
Vice President Dr. Paul Horn.
I believe that the team spirit,
communication skills and other qualities I
acquired in thee activities will be
conducive to advanced research in an
American university.
5.
Solid command of English
Although not an English major, my
English proficiency is comparable to that of
English majors in Chinese
universities,
as demonstrated by my high grades in both TOEFL
and GRE. I do not just know the English
language well. I can communicate as
effectively in English as I do in Chinese. I
believe that good
communication and
writing skills are indispensable to a successful
researcher or engineer. My TWE
score is
5.5, which is especially high for Chinese
students, and my oral English is good, too, as I
have
many a chance to talk with my
parents’ foreign colleagues and exchange different
ideas and information
with them when
they come to China. I will take TSE this October
and I am confident that I will get another
high score.
6.
Why I decide to pursue my study abroad?
Although studying in
Tsinghua University has solidly grounded me for an
engineering career, I have for
long
felt the urgency and responsibility to study
abroad. From my personal experience, I realize,
frankly
speaking, that China’s
biomedical engineering is not yet developed
enough. I remember that, in
September
1997 when I went to Beijing Recovery Center for
“social investigation”, I found all the
advanced recovery and nurse appliances
displayed and used there were made abroad and the
expenses
were too high for ordinary
people. To give you another example, the EEG
system currently made in
China for
clinical use requires electrode check-up before
operation. This always brings patients suffering
because the nurses have to rub the
electrode heavily on their scalp for about half an
hour for ideal
location. One day, a
professor there brought us an EEG system imported
from California, U.S.A. This
system not
o
nly solves the old problem, but also
sets up a new detecting function for brain’s
cognition
ability.
From these and other things, I know
that the United State has the advanced technology
and thus the
original ideas, but China
has quality researchers like me who can learn to
do as well. I feel that I have not
taken the full advantage of my
intellectual capabilities. I wish to pursue more
advanced studies and then
improve my
country’s biomedical situation. Only by doing this
can I feel better when I recall m
y
childhood
memories, memories of my
grandmothers dying needlessly. Only by doing this
can I fulfil my ultimate aim
to make
biomedical appliances part of everybody’s life, to
help provide ordinary people correct and timely
treatment and care for their illness.
I have inherited from my
parents’ intellectual qualities. My father, a
professor of Physics at the Beijing
University, and my mother, a senior
engineer of Physics with the Chinese academy of
Sciences. Have
bestowed on me the
character of diligence, resolution and
perseverance as well as the ability to
understand new things quickly. They
have both been to several universities in U.S.A.
as visiting scholars.
So when I was
young, I had some knowledge of universities in
United States. My older brother pursued
his graduate studies in MIT, where he
obtained a Master of Science Degree in physics in
1992 and a Ph.
D. in the Division of
Health Sciences and Technology in 1996. By
realizing his achievement, he has given
me tremendous encouragement and
confidence because I know that I am as excellent
as he is.
7. I think
Cornell University is an ideal place for me.
Graduate studies should be
both intellectually exhilarating and challenging.
But to decide which
university to
attend is one of the biggest decisions
in one’s life. Keeping these in mind, I
consider Cornell
University as my First
Choice. A world-famous top-notch university,
Cornell has a world-class faculty,
advanced research facilities and a
stimulating academic atmosphere, all very
conducive to the
development of my
potential into actual ability. If I am accepted, I
will Instrumentation and Diagnostics as
well as Biomedical Mechanics. My solid
academic foundation, independent research ability
and strong
background in biomedical
engineering and related subjects, coupled with my
determination and strong
sense of
responsibility, have paved the way for me to
undertake advanced studies at an institution of
higher learning like yours.
