官网上的lse文书要求

我们先看看学校官网上对文书内容要求，已经看过的小伙伴也可直接拉到下一段看学姐的文书建议。

lse文书要求总结一下就是要原创，要学术为主，课外活动别写太多，要能让学习看到你与你申请专业直接的联系，还要有个人特色。

"Before you start writing. do your research
Before you start writing your personal statement, you should visit our course guides. These guides give information on the course content of each of our undergraduate programmes.
When assessing your personal statement our Admissions Selectors will look at how well your academic interests align with the LSE course. So, for example, the Anthropoiogy Admissions Selector is likly to prefer a statement which focuses mainly on sociai anthropology - which is taught at LSE - over one which suggests the applicant is very interested in biological anthropology. or a combined degree with archaeology, as these courses are not ed at the School.
Similary, a personal statement which shows an interest mostly in modern international history (the focus of LSE's International History course) is likely to be more competitive than one which shows a signifcant interest in ancient history, as LSE does not any ancient histony units.
If you are applying for a range of slightly ifferent courses, we recommend that you focus your personal statement on the areas of overiap between them, so that your statement appeals to all of your UCAS choices. It is important to note that LSE does not accept replacement or supplementary personal statements."

"What to include in your personal statement
Your personal statement should discuss for the most part your academic interest in the subject you wish to study. One way to think about the personal statement is to reflect on what we expect from LSE undergraduates: we ask them to learn about topics relevant to their course, through reading or other experiences, and then
discuss the ideas they have encountered in academic essays. This is the skill we look for in the personal statement and we recommend at least 80% of your statement should be dedicated to this type of academicdiscussion.
How you show your wider engagement with your subject is entirely up to you. Our Selectors look for students who can best reflect on the experiences and academic ideas they have encountered through the opportunities available to them, not those who have had the best opportunities. If you are not sure where to start, you could try lisening to podcasts of LSE public events or look in the prospectus for examples of suggested reading.
Remember we are interested not just in a list of what you have read/encountered, but evidence you have reflected on the academic ideas.
To help you begin, there are several questions you could think about."

*以下内容以人称叙述*

第一次申请用的预估分，41分（满分42分，TOK3分不估）；这次申请用的实考分，44分（满分45分）。

所以在国际课程成绩上我是一直稳稳过线的，主要的差异就是文书。

第一次申请，实话说文书写得非常不满意。
首先是内容上出错了。我执着于想要表现得很专业，一定要写出有难度的内容。然后这篇ps真的非常不personal。
其次是专业上出错了。第一次申请我同时申的是牛津经管与LSE会计与金融。虽然都是商科经济大类，但是国际课程还是存在差异点的。我用同一篇文书去申请这两个有出入的专业，尤其LSE纯看文书，被拒的结果我也是做好心理准备了。
当我明白文书是我申请成败的关键点，我就立刻找到吴昊导师在暑期报名了唯寻的牛剑营。利用summer vacation在牛剑营中的时间把文书搞定，结果我也非常满意。
总结了第一次的失败经验，重申我选择了两个出入不大的专业：牛津经管和LSE管理。并且在这一次的文书中，我用学术呈现了我自己。
希望给到大家一些写文书的思路，详细点来说：
不要把文书写得太像一篇论文，因为它不仅仅是一篇论文。
在新的文书中，我将自身兴趣经历与学术相结合！

国际学校我有一个很大的兴趣爱好就是戏剧，于是我从管理我的戏剧剧社的角度，结合了专业的管理的理论去呈现这篇文书。这篇文书就是既是关于自己的，也能表现我的热情，专业性也很focus，就会非常精彩。
