2017年2月,Common Application(通用申请,以下简称CA)公布了2017-2018年度申请文书题目,先对原先的5道题目进行微调,又增加了2道新题,现在CA系统共有7道文书题目。但文章的字数上限依然是650字保持不变。
CA官方对此表示,此次调整依据的是其对CA的成员高校、咨询团队、学生、升学顾问和在校老师等群体的调查结果,其中学生意见占比(59%)。虽说2017fall的录取还没有完全结束,但准备申请2018fall的同学却要打起精神了,毕竟你们赶上了新题啊!
现在,就来看看的文书题目吧!
1新(旧)题:Some students have a background,identity,interest,or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it.If this sounds like you,then please share your story.[No change]
译文:一些学生有一些具有特殊意义的背景、身份、兴趣或天赋,如果在申请材料中不提及这些,那么这份申请材料将会不够完整。如果你是这样的,那么请分享你的故事。(题目不变)
2新(旧)题:Describe a problem you've solved or a problem you'd like to solve.It can be an intellectual challenge,a research query,an ethical dilemma-anything that is of personal importance,no matter the scale.Explain its significance to you and what steps you took or could be taken to identify a solution.[No change]
译文:描述一个你曾经解决过的问题或者你想要解决的问题。可以是智力挑战,研究查询,道德困境——不论限制,任何对你个人来说非常重要的都行。阐明它对你的意义,为了解决这个问题你采取了哪几步,或者你觉得可以采取哪些方法来得到解决方案。(题目不变)

原题:The lessons we take from failure can be fundamental to later success.Recount an incident or time when you experienced failure.How did it affect you,and what did you learn from the experience?
