tackle英国硕士-国际关系-personal statement 范例／Argue GPA 范例

Dear Sir or Madam:

I have received many offers from other universities in UK, but it is my ultimate goal to

join

your

university,

Queen

Mary.

Unfortunately

as

per

conditional

offer

I

received,

the

academic condition of 3.5 is a bit high for me to gain. My GPA

is 3.4 for 130 credit points

now (with scholarship prize this year).

I

do not think it is very

fair to group

all

applicants

whose

Chinese

universities

are

outside

the

top-100-list

together

for

a

3.5

GPA.

With

a

genuine passion to join your university, I wish an exemption can be granted to me given to

my extensive experience in related fields.

I have always wanted to understand more about the world, not about its physical form

or its surface, but about the people in it and the reasons why we have come to live the way

we do, the reasons for conflicts, government decisions and economic developments.

Since I was a kid I have been used to watching TV news every night and discussing

the

contemporary

issues

with

my

father

who

has

great

passion

for

politic

issues

in

particular. Deeply influenced by my father, who was a sales manager in Novartis, I “inherit”

and nurture this passion for international relations study. For that reason, I chose History

for my high school major and learnt numerous historical events of the main countries in the

world, not only restricting to those events themselves, but also about the reasons and the

after effects in terms of politics, economics and culture.

My

knowledge

about

international

order,

world

war,

globalization,

economic

crisis,

region

conflicts,

revolution

and

so

on,

has

accumulated

further

during

my

Political

Economics

curriculum

since

2008

when

I

started

university.

I

have

been

extensively

engaging in volunteer work in

the joint

international study office by

xxx and my Chinese

university. As a reward, I got the chance to interview the vice deputy of Ireland consulate,

which aimed to introduce the Ireland’s past and present to our school students.

At the end of 2009, in virtue of my excellent performance during the previous work, I

stood out from all candidates and was elected to join in College Student’s Simulate APEC,

responsible

for

discussing

global

development

strategies

after

the

economic

crisis,

and

the effects of establishing global trading regions. I was a member of popularization group,

and

acted

as

the

representative

of

Japan

at

the

Simulate

APEC.

This

project

is

a

joint

program

among

Shanghai

Ministry

of

Education

and

seven

top

business

schools which

included

mine,

dedicating

to

practical

curriculum

education

with

the

aim

at

promoting

students’

interests,

knowledge

and

understanding

about

contemporary

global

issues.

During the first period, I designed a questionnaire, leading audience students to attend the

lectures

with

specific

directions

such

as

the

features

of

raising

of

the

great

power,

economic

crisis,

conflicts,

relations,

productivity,

technology,

etc.

Moreover,

our

explanation

illustrated

by

the

lecturers

was

tailored

for

the

student

audiences

for

the

purpose

of

better

understanding

and

an

easy

learning

experience.

As

an

observer,

I

recorded

in

detail

what

kind

of

topics

and

issues

were

most

attractive

to

university

students, what methods were more suitable for students to cultivate their interest and so

on.

After

lectures,

students

are

encouraged

to

write

down

their

comments

on

this

experience, which is also an important source of information to our research. Those data

and information were collected for general review, and

proved to

be an efficient way for

students’ study and valuable resources for r

esearch. At the final Simulate APEC, with the

knowledge

and

previous

study

for

the

economic

politics,

I

acted

as

Japanese

Prime

Minister, discussing and arguing for the current global issues with the “Prime Minister” or

the “President” of other countries.

This experience broadened my vision and deepened my

understanding in international relations.

As a student in xxxx with specialty of Journalism, I have not only attained outstanding

performance

in

various

activities

and

projects

but

also

have

taken

a

leading

role

in

academic performance. Thanks to the profound knowledge in media, in the year of 2011, I

got the offer to work as an intern in China Vista Times.

One of the interviews I engaged in is to an interview with a person by the name of Li,
