  准备出国留学网文书,PS谁都会写,但是写的好不好,有没有效果,那就是细节上的问题了,俗话说细节决定成败,而PS中的细节,就是你需要了解的注意事项,下面出国留学网来说说英国留学个人陈述要注意的细节。

  误区1:简单粗暴地罗列经历 。

  很多人觉得在PS里把经历写的越多越能表现出自己的个性,所以把自认为亮眼的经历都搬进了PS里,导致结构冗长,平淡无奇,从招生老师的角度上来说,大概率情况下人家对你的这些故事并不感兴趣。他们想从里面看到什么?肯定是你的能力、素质、潜力、热情等等,在筛选经历的时候就应该根据 这些要求来进行。而且堆砌经历有一个很大的缺点就是没有突出重点,整篇看上去很平淡,让人很难记住。

  误区2:空有观点,没有事实/空有事实,没有细节

  在写作PS的时候,几乎每个人都会描述自己的观点。这里有个很容易犯的错误就是表达观点不带事例。PS其实就是说服别人选择你,但如果只是表达观点,是很难让别人信服的,在描述自身的学习经历和能力的时候,要用真东西说话,数据、奖状等都是佐证。。我们来自于UCL的导师谢学长特别强调,在写PS时要保持真实性和专业性。他的原话是这样的“when working in a PS, we should be true and academic. Being true means whatever experience showing on your essay should be relevant to the applicant. Some opinion are inciting students to make up stories to enrich their PS. Actually, this kind of behavior can be taken as cheating which may result in serious outcomes. Being academic means the paper should be logic enough. I have noticed that some students just are simply putting sentences together lack of coherence and cohesion. I suggest a good PS should convince the reader that the applicant is capable to finish the study.”

  误区3:逻辑混乱。

  逻辑是一篇PS的载体,逻辑混乱的PS导师是没有欲望读下去的,我们的谢导师在为学生修改PS时就碰到过这种情况“ There was a student, just like what she wants to be-- a design, her structure from the macroscopic view is amazingly good whereas when shifted to the microscopic view, that was terrible. I guess the first reason result in her essay’s failure would be her vocabulary. Some of her English expressions really confused me. For example, she used immense processing power to describe huge amount of calculation of computers. If we follow her expression, we could understand as something like a computer owns the ability to do processing very quickly. Considering that context, immense processing could be fine enough. The second reason is her informality of language. When I read her English, I could obviously observed that many of sentences were more like oral convey instead of academic English. The last contribution, I estimated, is her poor attitude. Although I can sniff her delicate plan of her future; her impressive ambition; her capability of being a excellent designer, her academic result is bad. According to her deion, maybe, she has not obtain her degree as other ordinary students do. Probably, this is the exact reason that she says she does not want to live a ordinary life”

  试想一下,如果你连PS写作的逻辑都理不清楚,招生官又凭什么相信你有足够的逻辑思维去做研究呢?

  误区4:套用模板

  我们经常碰到有同学上来就找我们要模板,想通过我们的模板来判定我们的实力,小A能理解。如果拿我们优秀的模板拿去稍加修改就当成自己的,那么小A只有一个表情

  写PS就像把妹,有套路就能得手吗?肯定不是,比起套路,诚心更重要。一份好的PS必须要有灵魂,而灵魂就来自与申请者独特的个性。我们的导师就极力反对使用模板,在和导师进行讨论时,导师是这样告诉我的“what I want and wanted to show is my special characters, my stubborn to follow my ideas; my courage to insist my opinions; my talents to change the status quo. So, if I were given the chance to DIY my PS, I would definitely ignore all of structures on Google, instead, I would use my own tricks to hook the reader.”

  误区5:过度包装自己。

  导师们喜欢什么样的学生?就像你在个人陈述中想要塑造的这种样子:关键词是:领导力,谦虚,成熟,有目标导向的做事风格,勤奋工作的个人品质,有良好思维和观点,聪明,有创意。记住承认自己并不完美是可以的,但重要的是要能够认识并从错误和失败中吸取教训。你应该避免在个人形象或在个人陈述中写这些内容:傲慢,自负,竞争心太强,完美主义者,盲目雄心勃勃,过度书写,行事不端,判断不切实际。

  最后提醒一点,能给招生官留下一个深刻印象的个人陈述,一定是一篇新颖,有趣,别出心裁的个人陈述。
