As a typical child growing up under the shadows of great entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, I am always fascinated by the process of creation and innovation revolutionizing the globe. Recognizing the interplay between engineering and management, something valued by modern business leaders, I would like to be a part of the Management & Technology Program at the University of Pennsylvania.
I was an ordinary kid in China confined by the very boundary of school until I uncovered my indomitable enthusiasm for cutting-edge technology. I found out that I was born with the abilities to learn without holding back and try without fearing failure, so I took great advantage of them. I have always been the top student, getting good test grades and winning academic awards, but those are not my true goal. In fact, I aspire to change and better people’s lives and turn this into my career.
Thus, together with some friends I started cool projects: we built robots for contests and wrote dozens of programs to tackle problems in distinct areas from ESL learning to time management. I consider all these efforts as a way to fulfill my goal. Lately, I pieced together the engineering knowledge with the ideas of marketing when selling our app on the App Store, and the revenue was too good to be true for newbies. The turn of events made me deviate from the original “geek” path and drove me to think as a leader or as the “CEO” of my little group. Now when I search for the college program that brings me closer to my dream, I discover that the Penn M&T program is exactly where I should go to learn both how to create and how to manage.
Your program boasts an unparalleled advantage—I can simultaneously learn the quantitative and qualitative sides of a high-tech company in just four years. Given the fact that many geniuses did not wait to finish college to found their companies, we could agree that time is of the essence. Besides, M&T will benefit me with the atmosphere of entrepreneurship and steady support for new start-ups founded by students. The Weiss Tech House and Wharton Entrepreneurial Programs are definitely some of the most attractive opportunities for me to both learn and operate a real business. On these occasions, I will get on to the stage to present myself and meet new people with similar interests. Thoughts that are crazy enough to change the world are everywhere, as passionate students dream about everything, unrealistic or even nutty.
In conclusion, to graft technology with management at college suits my vision well. It can be the first step in a crazy (as in the catchphrases of Jobs) kid’s plan to greatness.
留学文书译文(机翻):
作为一个典型的孩子,我在史蒂夫·乔布斯和比尔·盖茨等伟大企业家的阴影下长大,我总是着迷于创造和创新的过程,这一过程使全球发生了革命性的变化。认识到工程和管理之间的相互作用,这是现代商界领袖所重视的,我想成为宾夕法尼亚大学管理与技术课程的一员。
我在中国是一个普通的孩子,被学校的边界所限制,直到我发现我对尖端技术的不屈不挠的热情。我发现我生来就有学习而不退缩,尝试而不害怕失败的能力,所以我充分利用了这些能力。我一直都是尖子生,取得了好成绩和学术奖,但这些并不是我真正的目标。事实上,我渴望改变和改善人们的生活,并将其转化为我的职业。
因此,我和一些朋友一起开始了一些很酷的项目:我们为比赛建造了机器人,并编写了数十个程序来解决从ESL学习到时间管理等不同领域的问题。我认为所有这些努力都是实现我目标的一种方式。最近,当我在app Store上销售我们的应用程序时,我将工程知识与营销理念结合在一起,收入对新手来说太好了。事件的转折使我偏离了最初的“极客”道路,驱使我思考作为一个领导者或作为我的小团队的“CEO”。现在,当我寻找让我更接近梦想的大学课程时,我发现宾夕法尼亚理工大学的M&T课程正是我应该去学习如何创造和管理的地方。
你的课程有着无与伦比的优势——我可以在短短四年内同时学习到一家高科技公司在数量和质量方面的知识。考虑到许多天才并不急于完成大学学业就成立了自己的公司,我们可以同意时间至关重要。此外,M&T还将为我带来创业的氛围和对学生创业的稳定支持。韦斯技术学院和沃顿商学院的创业项目无疑是我学习和经营一家真正企业的最有吸引力的机会。在这些场合,我会走上舞台,展示自己,结识志趣相投的新朋友。疯狂到足以改变世界的想法无处不在,因为充满激情的学生梦想着一切,不切实际甚至疯狂。
总之,在大学里把技术和管理结合起来很适合我的愿景。这可能是一个疯狂的孩子(如乔布斯的流行语)走向伟大的第一步。

AADPS老师文书点评:对于一些双学位/跨学科的项目,学校常常会使用一篇篇幅较长的,类似于研究生个人陈述的文书题目来考察学生的匹配程度。凸显自身和项目的契合以及对项目的深刻了解是破题的关键。
家长感言:宾大是我们原先不太敢想的学校。感谢AADPS对项目的洞悉和在申请上多年耕耘的实力,让孩子在ED就有幸步入藤校的大门。
