解读新改版UC系统申请Essay题目

相对于研究生的文书创作还有一定的规律可以找寻，本科生的文书创作随意性太大，本科生文书招生绝大多数还是考察申请者全面性，从个人性格、品质、智力、教育、家族等各方面来评估一个学生，且题目多为开放式，所以我们通常会要求在申请的过程中递交不同的essay，而UC系统今年的essay题目也将作出重大调整，此前UC系统采用的是写2篇不超过1000字的essay，现在全新改版的essay变为 8选4 ，且每篇字数不超过350字。全新改版的essay题目称为 Personal insight questions ，即更加注重申请者个人特征的问题。

8个题目具体如下：

1. Describe an example of your leadership experience in which you have positively influenced others, helped resolve disputes, or contributed to group forts over time.

2. Every person has a creative side, and it can be expressed in many ways: problem solving, original and innovative thinking, and artistically, to name a few. Describe how you express your creative side.

3. What would you say is your greatest talent or skill? How have you developed and demonstrated that talent over time?

4. Describe how you have taken advantage of a significant educational opportunity or worked to overcome an educational barrier you have faced.

5. Describe the most significant challenge you have faced and the steps you have taken to overcome this challenge. How has this challenge affected your academic achievement?

6. Describe your favorite academic subject and explain how it has influenced you.

7. What have you done to make your school or your community a better place?

8. What is the one thing that you think sets you apart from other candidates applying to the University of California?

美国院校申请，尤其是名校申请是一个漫长而繁琐的过程，涉及到申请材料制作，标准化考试成绩寄送，文书材料书写，申请表格提交以及可能产生的面试，任何一个环节能够利用的时间都非常的有限，任何一个需要提交出去的材料都有经过几轮的修改和审核才最大可能的避免纰漏。
