Undergraduate / BU supplement: describe yourself in 3 words; 'education and new aadventures' [4]
Throughout my life, people have misjudged me based on appearance while my true unique qualities are to be hidden in the shadows. People do not realize that I am actually versatile, persistent and caring in reality; instead, they are too ignorant to form a relationship with me. I am a type of person who works hard to achieve its goals and take time to assist others when they are in difficult situations. I also believe textbooks, facts on the internet and teachers' advices are not enough for a student to expand his or her knowledge. Rather, a student must involve in a variety of activities beyond the classrooms to obtain a well-rounded perspective of the surroundings.
For most colleges or universities, going to class is optional and most teachers do not even take attendance. However to be a good student, one must attend every session regardless of any excuses. My curiosity to learning new academics at Boston University will motivate me to attend each of these sessions and be consistent throughout the semesters. I also make sure that my grades on exams, assignments and projects are completed with full effort because minimum effort is not an option for me. I believe hard work and perseverance are the "keys" to future benefits in which I can contribute to the BU community by involving in numerous clubs and events while still maintaining a decent grade point average.
Another quality I possess is my persistency in overcoming obstacles. For me, my biggest pet peeve is when problems go unsolved. My anxiety grows larger until my mind urges me to go back and fix my problems. So if Boston University administration were to stumble onto a difficult financial situation, I would be willing to uphold fundraisers to help this university raise money for better quality of classroom equipments, facilities, and etc. Until a feasible amount of money is paid, I would never give up on the fundraisers.
Lastly, most new upcoming students find it difficult in moving onto a new environment for college. They strictly believe stress will overcome their mentality and will have severe meltdowns. So as a caring individual, I am always enthusiastic to assist them in any way such as offering tours around the BU campus, providing assistance in completing assignments, and giving positive influential advice into surviving college. I will not accept a student left behind or a student giving up on his or her education. I believe all students have the potential to graduate from a university but most lack the confidence to do so. This is the reason why I will boost the self esteems of many fellow students upon my arrival at Boston University.
Overall, Boston University is the perfect university for me. All my interests in education and new adventures seem to be well suited in Boston. I hope the administration will acknowledge my unique qualities mentioned above and accept me as its new member.
So any thoughts?
