自述论文（Essay）写作，国内叫申请文书，是除了高中成绩单和SAT分数外，申请大学最重要的一环。哪些要写进去，哪些可不写？Elizabeth虽说是地道美国老太太，但她长斯投入教育辅导，帮助过无数高中生确立学习目标，进入理想学校，同时也是世界日报专栏作者，所以对华裔学生的共性了解颇深。

Readme paper（essay）writing，Domestic call application documents，Is in addition to high school transcript and outside their SAT scores，Apply for university one of the most important ring。What to write in，Which don't write？Elizabeth though is the real American old lady，But her long into education, counseling，Many high school students helped establish learning goals，Into the ideal school，At the same time is also the world journal columnist，So for Chinese students' common understanding is quite deep。

　　她建议一份好的Essay不要写得过长，因为大学招生人员只有7分钟的时间来阅读这篇文书，字字金贵，应描述自己最有趣的经验，不用太多形容词，多谈正面议题，避免政治或宗教话题。

She suggested that a good essay don't write too long，Because the university admissions officers, only seven minutes to read this article documents，Were said，Should describe your most interesting experience，Don't have too many adjectives，Talk about positive issues，To avoid political or religious topic。

　　现在高校都在寻找多元的学生组合，如果想让自己申请时表现突出，给考官留下深刻印象，课外成就或打工学到的经验，都是好题材。担任义工的经验，对于选择主修社会学科或医科的同学很重要。在写到为何要选择该校时，不应奉承讨好，而要具体写出对特定课程、研究的认识。有一位同学在申请波士顿大学时，第一句话就是我喜欢Boston College，其实这是波士顿学院，与波士顿大学是两所不同的大学，你连学校名称都弄不清楚，当然直接被拒了。还有的学生因为一口气申请了6所大学，把申请A学校的Essay错发到B学校了，结果可想而知。

Now university are looking for multiple students combination，If want to let oneself when applying for distinguishing，The examiner to leave a deep impression，Extracurricular work achievements or learn experience，Are good theme。Volunteer experience，To choose to major in social studies or medical students is very important。Why to choose the school in writing to，Should not fawning，But to write specific to a particular course、The understanding of the research。Have a classmate in the application when Boston university，The first word is I like Boston College，Actually this is Boston college，And Boston university is two different universities，You even school names are not clear，Of course directly expelled。And because the student of breath applied for six universities，To apply for A school essay wrong to B school，Can imagine as a result。

　　Elizabeth说，孩子在中学时不妨学习冷门一些的运动或才艺，校方喜欢看到冒险、好奇、求知欲望强、有远大志向的学生。有学生写自创网络公司的经历，结果被哥伦比亚大学录取。也有学生写风灾后为植树活动募款的经历，进入了耶鲁大学。

Elizabeth said，Children in secondary school might as well learn upset some sports or talent，Officials like to see adventure、curious、Seeking knowledge desire strong、Have great ambition of students。Have the students to write the experience of a network company，The result is at Columbia University。Have the students to write a cyclone that planting trees for the experience of fundraising activities，Entered Yale university。

　　Elizabeth特别提到，中国学生在选主题时，如果你的爱好是弹琴、书法、打球，它们并不一定能够让你在申请美国大学时加分——因为中国孩子太多这样雷同的爱好了！记得一定要写下你对未来的梦想！

Elizabeth special mention，Chinese students in the chosen subject，If your hobby is harps、calligraphy、play，They are not must be able to apply for the American university - for when because Chinese children too many such of the same hobby！Remember must write down your dreams for the future！
