总结高人的PS经验

Do you see how by saying it this way...

1) you are not pointing fingers at any specific company, showing that you have courtesy and respect.

2) you are not saying anything negative

3) you are emphasizing your observation skills, creativity...and the positive possibilities.

4) you are not emphasizing the positive by making someone else look negative...this is very important. You

are simply talking about what could be changed and what the impacts would be.

5) lots of professors do consulting...what if the ad-com member reading your essay is a consultant for that

company? ...they would not like you very much.

3) Failures - just because the essay question asks you about a failure do not mean you go into detail about how you failed. You do not need to give a step by step account of what happened. Give a quick and brief summary in the beginning. Then focus the rest of the essay on what you learned from the experience, how you have overcome it, how it has made you a smarter, stronger, better person...and possibly provide another example showing how you have learned from the mistake. Always end the essay with the positive...because then, when the ad-com member finishes your essay, hopefully what sticks out in his/her mind is how you are able to learn from your mistakes...and that you are a stronger and better person.

Okay...as always... if you have any questions and are interested in finding out more about what I can provide in terms of services...you can email me at tinaxue@mit.edu. I will address the inquiries and I can offer a

consultation and comments for INTERESTED customers....if you just have a quick question about writing, please post below and I will address it. If you have a general big question...send me a message via CD and I will address it in the next blog.

essay考察的素质大同小异，包括：领导力、学习力、创新能力、团队合作能力、社会责任感和对自己的认识。

1． 领导力

影响力，让周围的人和资源按照自己的愿望配置的能力。这种影响力往往和职位没有关系。（多读这方面的书籍和例文，写的新颖有深度）

2． 学习力

对新事物的理解和把握。会学习。

3． 创新能力

一种精神，一种领导变革的思维方式。

4． 团队合作能力

显示出集体的优势，体现如何取长补短，让自己在组织中发挥最大作用的能力

5． 社会责任感

不仅仅用做义工表达，通过小事说明

6． 对自己的认识

自己从这段经历中学到了什么，有什么感悟和对以后的人生有什么样的指导意义。自我认识可以反映一个人的进步空间，即潜力。

写作基本原则：

1． 主题明确

全文和段落主题

总起句法，全篇首尾段，各段首尾段

2． 内容集中

每一句话都为中心思想服务，多一句嫌多，少一句嫌少。

STAR: 形势、目标、行为、结果
