Navigating the Foreign University Application Maze 申請國外大學教戰守則-6
| Mary: I was afraid you'd say that. What needs improvement?
Dennis: You talk a lot about your hobbies, but they aren't very 1)relevant to your application. You should discuss your 2)achievements and 3)ambitions more.
Mary: Here's another essay topic I struggled with a lot:"Describe a challenge or difficulty you overcame. What did it teach you?"
Dennis: That's a 4)toughie. What did you write about?
Mary: All I could come up with was doing a difficult assignment in college.
Dennis: I don't think that would be too 5)impressive. You need to come up with something better.
Mary: I know! I'll discuss the time I started my first job and had to learn the ropes.
Dennis: Good idea. You can talk about the challenge of adapting to a new environment.
瑪 莉：就怕你這麼說。哪裡需要改進呢？
丹尼斯：妳說了很多關於嗜好的事情，但那跟妳的申請沒什麼關係。妳應該多談談妳的成就和抱負。
瑪 莉：還有一個題目讓我寫得很辛苦。「描述一項你克服的挑戰或難關。你學到什麼樣的教訓？」
丹尼斯：那是個難題。妳寫了什麼？
瑪 莉：我只想得到我大學時代所做的一項困難的作業。
丹尼斯：我覺得那不會給人太深刻的印象。妳得再想想有沒有更好的題材。
瑪 莉：我知道了！我來談談我剛開始做第一份工作時，得盡快上手的事情好了。
丹尼斯：好主意。你可以說說適應新環境的挑戰。
