伯克利教你写PS三步走

千辛万苦，终于找到。

Remember--it is the quality of your experience as you describe it that matters, not the number of experiences.

STEP ONE

Begin to focus your thoughts by examining your actual experiences. Use the information you've uncovered through brainstorming to address the following topics.
• An achievement that made me feel terrific...
• Something I have struggled to overcome or change about myself or my life...
• An event or experience that taught me something special...
• A "real drag" of an experience that I had to get past...
• Someone's act of strength or courage that affected me...
• A family experience that influenced me in some powerful way...
• A lesson, class project, activity or job that had an impact on my academic or career goals...
• A time I blew it, failed, made bad choices, and how I got past it...
• Some memorable event or advice involving an older person...
• An event that helps to define me, in terms of my background...

[b]STEP TWO

Choose one or two of your favorite respones from the list above (or combine a couple that evoked similar responses). Check to make sure your written description addresses the following three questions. If it doesn't, add details so that the experience you describe will be vivid to a reader who doesn't know you.
1. What were the key moments and details of the event?
2. What did I learn from this event?
3. What aspect of this event stays with me most?

STEP THREE

Decide on a theme for your essay. Taking the experience you wrote about in Step Two, answer the following questions:
•What does this event reveal about me?
•What makes it special or significant?
•How does this event make me special or make me stand out?

挺有用的，谢谢分享。

谢谢分享~帮助理清思路

又要写PS 又要写SoP 又要写Statement of achievements什么的最可恶了！！！！我都快被搞死了~

申请EE类的也适合吗？SOP 和PS 是必须分开写的吗？

按这个标准,80%的ps都是不合格啊

PS写到崩溃的人...
