Personal Statement
样本
A student of
the Peking University’s inaugural program of
advertising, I am writing in support of
my application for acceptance into your
graduate program of communication studies. With my
solid education and my professional
experience that is as colorful as it is rare, I
believe that, with
your
seasoned
guidance,
I
can
build
upon
my
strong
background,
for
a
pioneering
career
in
China’s booming
advertising industry.
At
Peking University, dubbed the Harvard of China by
President Clinton on his recent trip to Chins,
I have been a student star on campus
due to my outstanding academic performances. When
I
entered into this university in 1995,
I already stood out among my crop of freshmen,
having won
a total of scores in the
1995 National College Entrance Examinations that
was the fifth highest in
Beijing.
A
fervent
fan
of
my
chosen
subject
of
studies,
I
have
proved
myself
as
much
of
an
intellectual
wizard
in
higher
learning
as
I
was
in
grade
school,
as
demonstrated
by
my
grades,
which
placed me at the very top in my class of 23. My
GPA in the first three years is 89.5, a rarely
seen high grade in PKU. My GPA for core
courses is over 90, far higher than that of my
fellow
students.
I
was
the
only
one
who
received
100,
the
full
mark,
in
two
theoretical
courses,
the
advanced mathematics and
appreciation of fine arts. In practical courses
like computer design,
my grades were
also high, sometimes as high as 96. In recognition
of such stellar performances, I
have
been
named
the
top
student
of
the
department
and
granted
Academic
Excellence
Scholarships for three consecutive
years. I was elected the Student Representative
for Academic
Affairs.
But I was no bookworm. To broaden my
vision and enrich my knowledge, I also chose
electives in
such fields as Russian
Literature and Chinese History. I have spent
considerably more time in the
library
than my classmates. The more I learnt on campus,
the more I hoped to see the real world
outside the ivory tower. So in the
first summer recess, I applied for a temporary job
at the Yaxing
Advertising
Agency,
affiliated
with
the
China
Sports
Daily,
when
most
of
my
friends
and
classmates were enjoying themselves at
home or travelling around. Appointed as the
accounting
executive assistant, I
helped organize a promotional event for the
Atlantic Olympic Games. This
job gave
me a picture of China’s advertising
industry.
In the
first semester of the academic year 1996-1997, I
worked part-time with the PKU TV Net,
where I was offered a splendid
opportunity to improve my ability in journalism.
Being a Weekly
News broadcaster, I
regularly faced tens of thousands of audience,
which greatly increased my
confidence.
I
learnt
to
think
independently
and
cooperate
wit
others
when
doing
the
series
reports
“PKU
students’
life”,
a
program
which
was
mainly
about
student
recipients
of
prizes
in
national
and
international
contests.
Conducted
with
creativity
and
diligence,
the
program
was
placed among the best programs in the
PKU TV Net.
Unlike most
other students, I have never stopped working while
in school. From September 1997
on, I
have been working as a research assistant in CCTV’
s Qiantu Advertising Company, the sixth
biggest
in
China.
My
responsibility
is
to
establish
a
market
database.
Difficult
as
it
was,
I
have
handled
it
without
a
glitch.
I
have
also
done
part-time
work
helping
to
promote
the
President
Food Corporation
and served as a research assistant in the S & D
Research Agency, a consulting
firm
specialized in conducting market surveys for
multinationals in China.
