Not until I was in year 11th did I hear about Hong Kong University from my
mom. By the time, I was only a high school student looking forward to
entering National Taiwan University, but all was different. The more
information about HKU I received, the stronger my determination to enter the
university was established. The culture HKU keeps is exactly the one I’m
dreaming of. And the most important and decisive reason is that: “I want to
go out.” I want to stay away from my comfort zone, Taiwan. Meeting new
people, adjusting to a new environment and facing any difficulties I’ve
never coped with before have never been an obstacle to my pursuing of dreams.
And that’s my philosophy, that’s who I am.
Being a student in the top high school in Taiwan, I was not actually born in
Taipei. When I was in junior high school, my father kept telling me about
the advantages I could get if I attend Jiaguo High School such as resources
and competitiveness. Therefore, I set up my mind.
Three years ago, I walked into the school. Three years later, I can’t
believe I’m leaving. What I’ve learned were beyond my expectations:
dependence, cooperation and leadership.
Clubs are the most important part for a high school student in Taipei. They
are not only a place to relax from whole day schooling, but a place to learn.
Faced with the variety of clubs in CK (what we really call our school), I
chose Biology Club eventually. In the second year, I became the microbiology
and immunology teacher and the executive of activities planning. Winter camp
is the most important activity in the club, we hosted a six-day camp for the
freshman, and I was elected as the director. Being the director meant entire
responsibility, and you were not the only one who was working on it.
Cooperation and communication are the indispensable abilities for not only
the members but the very leader. And I always told everyone to “argue”,
because only through argue can one learn others opinions and then blend them
with his together. When “argue” developed into “fight”, that’s the time
my work should be done. Though filled with difficulties, the winter camp
ended up successful. Take a bow, my job was done.
In the last year, I was selected as the biology school team through a series
of tests. Later I won the second place of the “Taipei High School Science
and Information Ability Contest”, and about to join the “Taiwan High School
Science and Information Ability Contest” in January, 2012. Through all the
training and contests, I developed a further ability in conducting biology
experiments and a way of “thinking deeper”.
As a foreign student, I left my home in Taoyuan and shared a dormitory with
my club mate in the second year. From then on, I had to take care of all
kinds of house chores like doing the laundry, cleaning the room, and even
taking out the trash. However, I figured out that when no one is near, you
are really on your own.
Despite club activities and school team training, I still managed to keep my
grades in the first three places in the class, and that was why my parents
never worried about my school work.
As for the curriculums I choose are Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of
Surgery, Bachelor of Business Administration. I know I chose the completely
different two curriculums. I chose Medicine because of my interest in
Biology. I chose Business because I believe in my leadership. I don’t care
whether I am becoming a doctor or a company’s CEO in the future. No one
knows what my life will look in the future, nor do I. However, there is one
thing I’m completely sure: HKU is the best university I want to enter, and I
think I am meant to be there.
第一次寫personal statment，請各位幫我盡量批評，這是要申請香港大學的，與美國大學的Essay不同，比較像是台灣的自我介紹。
