Undergraduate / "SUNGOWN" - EXCHANGE STUDENT ; Common App [2]

"Sungwon Sungwon" My attention was following a voice and it changed me into the Columbus who was voyaging to the unfamiliar place .Interestingly, contradict to Columbus amazing founding the students who come to America has a simple reason. When I asked to exchange students about the reason why you came to United States. Most of them responded with united answer, "I came here for improving my English or I want to experience American cultures". Of course, it is wonderful chance to learn it. However, my goal was not as simple as the other students were because I have both a clear motivation and initiative.

Everybody has been heard Talmud at least one time which contains the opinions of thousands of rabbis on a variety of subjects including law, ethics, philosophy, customs, history, theology and lore. Surprisingly, this book has involved considerably in my life and gave me a strong motivation to be an exchange student. When I was in Elementary and Middle school, this story just gave me a motivation to build up knowledge, because the property can be gone anytime but knowledge can not be taken from anybody. Although this thinking was unsophisticated, it was criterion for me to compare with the others who just studying without no motivation.

Furthermore, while I was in high school, my motivation being more clearly. In the story of Talmud, three people in a ship were sailing for a long journey, two of them were rich and one was a just scholar. Suddenly, they counted with high surging and the ship is wretched. Moreover, they lost everything .In the meantime, Rabbis who has a lot of acquaintance can sustain himself and rests of them in the ship were bagging the money for living. At this point, I equalized the ship and country and figured it out that if I can gain the skill that the other people can not . In addition, the world being a globalization English became a necessity for nowadays. As a result, I decided that being an exchange student is good chance to realize my belief.

Next is initiative dictionary defines initiative as "the power ability, or instinct to begin or to follow through energetically with a plan or task. Many people will know the importance of this must have trait. My father always emphasize this trait and he describe it can to be the most powerful skill tool for bridging the chasm between the intelligent and average student. Because an initiative mind set can challenge myself to be an exchange student and after that I can have sweet fruit for result. Foreign exchange student approach to my life with an entirely new perspective. These newly discovered characteristics will help me in all aspects of my life as I continue to grow and face more challenges


Please give me a recommandation about grammar and the smoothness of story

3.Indicate a person who has had a significant influence on you, and describe that influence.

Writing Feedback / What could be the best job in the world? [5]

I think your essay is pretty well organized but showing the more specific example of what you want to insist is only one think that you need to fix it.

Undergraduate / Toastmasters Experience; Common App Short Answers [4]

I appreciate it that all of you are helping me :)
But at this part
When I was living In Korea, standing in front of people and conveying ideas was easy for me. Since I used to be the class president in my school and it was required of me to speak to a crowd. I knew it would be beneficial for me to join Toastmasters and it has been a valuable experience.

I do not know how to express my experience very explicit

Undergraduate / Toastmasters Experience; Common App Short Answers [4]

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen." I could feel my heart beating, as I stood on the platform confronting hundreds of pairs of eyes. Public speaking did not come naturally to me, and I felt remarkably self-conscious and nervous for the first few minutes. I belong to Toastmasters an organization for developing public speaking and leadership skills. During meeting, it gives impromptu talks on assigned topics, conduct meetings and develop skills related to parliamentary procedure.

To be honest, standing in front of people and conveying ideas was easy for me in Korea since I was used to be the class president in my school. However, because English is not my native language, I knew it would be beneficial for me to join Toastmasters, and it has been a valuable experience.

When I was participating in Toastmasters, it was a driving for in developing my English-speaking skills and it taught me how to communicate in a high-pressured atmosphere.
