Hey, thanks for the help on mine. I don't really know how to correct or structure essays and all but the only feedback I have is I think you should include some more personal things in there. You've very well covered why you would be a good candidate to receive the scholarship however there are a lot of good candidates to receive the same scholarship but what could make you stand out from others is why you would be the most beneficial one to be given it. I hope this helped. I am truly sorry if it didn't I'm not good at these kinds of things.

Noman, the information in your study plan is not as accurate as it should be. In fact, it reads more like an expanded statement of purpose rather than a Study Plan. You should think about creating a new draft that better addresses the outline of expected answers in this type of essay. There should be more clarity when it comes to depicting your reasons for studying your chosen major and why you feel that you would benefit from advanced studies outside of your home country.

Consider some deeper reasons for wishing to study in China. Right now, it sounds more like you want to be a tourist in the country instead of a serious student. For example, you can explain how you have some sort of special interest in the country or the culture of the country. One of the highlights of your essay can be information about how you ended up choosing the university that you mention in it. Why did you opt for this university in particular out of all the universities in China?

When you discuss your long term goals, make sure to relate those plans to how studying at the university can help you achieve those goals. It would be in your best interest to inform the reader that you plan to work in China for a few years after graduation. After all, you are going to be studying as a sponsored student of the Chinese government. Working for them after you graduate would be a nice thank you on your part.

Quite frankly though, I do not see any reasons in your essay that would make you a stand out applicant for the scholarship. You need to open up more about yourself. Talk about reasons why your professors or classmates or close friend consider you a unique individual. Maybe these personal qualities can help create a more interesting image of you as a potential student under their program.

Like I said, you have a statement of purpose at the moment and not a study plan. If you follow my instructions, we may just succeed in redirecting your essay towards a proper study plan presentation.

Howdy Louisa, in fact I don't really have any idea how exactly to write a study plan. I asked some friends who applied for the Chinese government scholarship and they told me " it is just like statement of purpose and some said it just like motivation letter. Though I was not convinced abut what they said, I followed their directions and advises. Therefore I post my first draft here, to get your generous help and suggestions. Now, I will try to follow your suggestions in order to develop a better STUDY PLAN. and if you have any other comments or if there is any form to write my study plan better.

THANK YOU SO MUCH..
