Finding hard to write “Why this college” essay. Any recommendation
The idea is not to tell them they’re wonderful, but how you and your qualities and what you’ve achieved or hope to achieve * match what they offer* perfectly. So, write a list of your strong points or interests or background and next to each see if the college has a mission, special program, location, offerings, values…that match each. For a short essay 3 examples suffice.
Raised in a socially, economically, and technologically backward society of , I have seen many problems of my poor people. It is not uncommon for children to have to spend two hours walking to school. Shelter is poor quality, leading to health problems such as malaria and tuberculosis. Health clinics are few and far away. If you do reach them, they are often empty, with a shortage of drugs, trained doctors, or health workers. All these problems raises from the poverty, lack of education, and inactive government.
Although I am here in the most advanced country of the world, I cannot easily forget the pain of my people. I chose the career path of engineering(technology) so that I could someday return to my own country and use my career to solve the major problems of my people who still suffer.
Half way through. How is this?
Not really - how does that highlight your skills and how they match their offerings?
Also, do not post on a public forum. Always send essays as PMs
What if I drop AP Bio and take Physics 220 at my community college for the last semester of my senior year? Will it seem bad to UC Berkeley if I am applying for EECS?
