hey, so i have to write an essay for a japanese scholarship (in english) and i have to write it within the next 2 weeks. what would you suggest writing? have to include reasons why i want to go, what i believe i will learn, how it will benefit me academically, personally, and with career (i want to be a vet) and why i would be a good ambassador for my school. I honestly have no idea what to include :( :( any help appreciated
So you basically have to talk yourself up, yes? Think of it as kind of like a cover letter for a resumé. All of the things you said are great things to include - it sounds like a great opportunity and if you feel that way too, you need to be sure that your writing expresses that clearly. Being a good ambassador for your school, include things like if you have been a member of a school organisation (representative council etc.), played for sports teams (shows you don’t just contribute academically), and any other extra curricula activities you have been a part of (debate team, public speaking, drama etc.). Why do you personally want to go? Obviously if you are applying, you must have reason - speak from your heart, I assume that they want the most enthusiastic and capable student. You need to sell yourself, show them you are fabulous! If you need someone to edit/help/read your essay, don’t hesitate to message me :)
