AFS is a transfer student program to another country. In which I am applying to America. Would really appreciate the help given as my english is not that good. Well here goes! I am suppose to write a personal statement which is :1. describing myself, personality, what is important to me2. My participation in school and community activities3. What I hope to gain from this programMy name is Swee Lyn. I am known for my bubbly and sociability persona. I am a sport house captain and the vice-president of the English Society. I have participated in various activities such as debate,filming competitions and leadership scout camps.
