您好，Personal Statement是Common App的主文书，提供了7个题目，涵盖了非常多的方面，申请者可以根据自己的情况自由选择其中一个来回答。建议申请者根据自己的情况以及文书的题目进行深刻的头脑风暴，充分挖掘自己过往经历中的故事，然后再进行撰写，反复修改，给身边的同学、老师看，让大家感受一下，看是否能让人印象深刻。此外，文书写作还是非常讲究策略的，可以和申请者在申请中提供的活动或者奖项来进行结合，或者是干脆避开已经提供的内容，另辟蹊径；也可以和专业相结合，或者不提专业，这个没有硬性的要求。此外，除了这个personal statement之外，也要好好利用addtional information 板块和一些学校的补充文书。最后，给您列举一下personal statement 这7个题目，供您参考：1. Some students have a background, identity, interest, or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story. 2. The lessons we take from obstacles we encounter can be fundamental to later success. Recount a time when you faced a challenge, setback, or failure. How did it affect you, and what did you learn from the experience? 3.Reflect on a time when you questioned or challenged a belief or idea. What prompted your thinking? What was the outcome? 4. Reflect on something that someone has done for you that has made you happy or thankful in a surprising way. How has this gratitude affected or motivated you? 5. Discuss an accomplishment, event, or realization that sparked a period of personal growth and a new understanding of yourself or others.6. Describe a topic, idea, or concept you find so engaging that it makes you lose all track of time. Why does it captivate you? What or who do you turn to when you want to learn more? 7. Share an essay on any topic of your choice. It can be one you've already written, one that responds to a different prompt, or one of your own design. 祝一切顺利！
