都没点明要我改, 不改了,小女子可以海龟哟!
亲爱的,你的文章应该更加专业点,语言的组织能力要加强点,另外就是有加点实质的内容,让这个推荐信不会太空洞。 下面可是我花了点心思给你改的,我表弟的推荐信也是我写的,他现在是美国奥尔本大学数学系的学生,全奖哟,每个月还有2000多美金的工资。
推荐信的内容
推荐信一般应包括下列内容:
1.被推荐人的基本情况介绍。侧重于个人的毕业时间、学校、所获学位以及个人的专业经历。
2.推荐人对被推荐人的基本评价。侧重于被推荐人的专业基础、个性、特点、工作态度和在学术上的前途估计。若是推荐研究生,推荐人还需进一步说明其深造学习的基础和当前所具备的研究能力。显然,恰如其分地评价被推荐人的基础、能力和前途,比言过其实的赞誉更令人情服,更具有实际意义。
3.推荐人可以着重介绍被推荐人曾经获得的奖励,发表过的论文,参加过的重要学术会议,以及曾在学生组织或学术团体中的任职等来支持自己的评价。
4.推荐人还必须清楚地表明被推荐人留学的身份是研究生还是访问学者,专业领域和研究方向是什么。
推荐信尾必须有推荐人的亲笔签名,最好直接由推荐人寄给学校招生办官员或申请就读学校的系主任。如果由被推荐人寄送,可将推荐信装入信封内封好后由推荐人在信封口处亲笔签名以示保密。信封正面注明“A Letter Of Recommendation”,表明这是一封推荐信。
To whom it may concern,
As the XXX of XX University (这里应该是写信人的在XX大学的职位), which is one of the most prestigious XX universities in China, I deem it a pleasure to recommend XXX (你的名字,前面加相应的性别符合,Mr. XXX) , one of the outstanding students in our department, for admission into your university for his/her MBA course.
Since his enrollment into our department with remarkable entrance scores, L has embodied the fine character of strong inquisition and industriousness in learning, which has gained him significant academic success during his college years. I am aware of his distinctive academic performance as reflected in his transcripts. In a word, he has a strong desire for knowledge and spirit for researching. Also he has capability of discovering, analyzing and solving questions independently.
L showed great enthusiasm in English study. He was the English class representative during the two years of English study and he was also one of the few students that passed the CET-6 test for the first time. As a member of the class leaders and recreational sports association in the department, he organized a variety of activities by himself or by cooperation and earned many good comments. He has the necessary team spirit and leadership to accomplish tasks.
5段把自己写的向雷锋一样,放在这里太过于做作了,我3掉了哈。
A bright young man, with blazing intelligence, energy, and determination, Mr. Wang deserves my first-rate recommendation. Thus, I would unqualifiedly recommend him for admission into the MBA program at your university and I will appreciate your sincere assistance to his admission.
Sincerely yours,
Professor XXX
Dept. of XXXX
** 哇,没话说discodiva写得好!用她写的!那一句“I am aware of his distinctive academic performance”太好了! 不过,你是不是把给别人写过的在重贴呀? 谁是 “Mr. Wang”呀? 还有我会把“In a word”拿掉因为后面的句子不止一个字。
discodiva 说得没错,你的文章太空洞了。 几乎每个人都会这么写。 反而,如果你具一件比较具体难忘有意义的成就来反映你的能力,那会比较突出一点。以下连接到一封Harvard 教授写的推荐信,他就强调了一些具体的东西。你可以参考吧。说回来,这个推荐信不是很重要但写实在一点可以帮你。如果写的很浮华,那也只是千律一篇。
最后的重点,我也看同楼上lawrencexcb 的看法。好好想你为何想读 MBA。
***************************************
我帮你全重写了。 不重要的我就没写上去。 短比长好。 不过,推荐信不重要。 你的GMAT多少? 你的工作经验呢?毕业后想做什么呢?这些他们比较看重。我再美读MBA 时有在 admission 学生小组看了很多申请书。chinglish 的推荐信和个人意向我看多了。写得好反而会怀疑呢。。。哈哈。。。
你也可以写信到 anderson.lin@colortempo.com 我可以给些意见。
To Whom It May Concern,
It is my pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for XXX. I’ve known XXX for three years now. I was his professor for the fundamental professional class and guided him for his graduation thesis for Bachelor’s degree. Further more, we had in-depth conversation when he was a sophomore. While he does not command the highest marks in class, he is motivated and studies hard. He has a strong desire for knowledge and spirit for researching. He is intellectually curious, analytical, and a strong problem solver which in combination demonstrated his leadership potential.
As an officer of the class council and the recreational sports association in the department, he organized a variety of activities that earned many good comments. The positive student feedbacks also show that he is just as a good team player as he is a leader.
I strongly recommend him for admission to your fine institution. I have no doubt that he will bring value to his peers.
Sincerely,
学double E的?是来美国的吧?
楼主,我中肯的提醒你,你的推荐信感觉太假,不光是英语的问题,更是结构的问题。
先解释一下我什么敢这么说,我在上研究生的时候经常帮助学校留学生办公室审核中国留学生的资料,再加上申请出国的程序自己也都经历过,所以标准我很清楚。
好,我再跟你说问题在哪,推荐信一般要2-3封吧,你这份是你专业教授写的,而教授写的信主要是肯定你的学术能力,而非你的管理组织能力。这就是为什么你的信感觉太假。
再就是太长了,当然里面的英语表达不是改一点就能完了,每句都要改,chinglish很严重。
我的意见是从结构上改,你先把信改短,再突出你的专业学术能力,这才是正道!
另外,信的称谓也不对,你是想说贵校领导吧?呵呵,都是中国人啊~~~~~称谓就写 To whom make concern
虽然很打击,不过很中肯,为了能拿offer,改吧,孩子
呵呵,看到你的留言了
恩~~~~怎么说呢,我不太明白,一个很好的理工科专业为什么要学mba呢,mba即使毕业了,在美国也很难找到工作啊,其实,理工专业才是最吃香的,mba在美国一般有几个分类,一般,会计,人力,信息。
最近美国刚刚颁布了政策,就是理工的四个专业能享受最长29个月的opt时间,但是如果是商的话,就享受不到,而且,在毕业以后的opt里,如果失业累计到3个月,就算非法移民了~~~~条件非常苛刻对文科生,说实话,我是学会计的,非常羡慕你们理科生,所以,如果你可以不换专业的话,最好不换,这是我的意见
感觉你是从中介出来的吧?不要听他们的。而且真是中介的话,这些材料他们就会给你翻译了~~~~
考虑一下,不要换专业,如果换,你还要补很多经济的课程,时间,金钱,都不划算~~~~美国现在的经济非常不好,不缺文科生,缺的就是理工!
foxxcb@hotmail.com是我的邮箱,有什么问题给我信吧,我不是要在这拿分的,能帮助国内的朋友才是真的。
恩~~~我看了anderson 和discodiva改的,都比你的原版要好很多很多,你可以用当中的任意一篇
哦,对了,要提醒一个,打印出来的信,最好是一面,不要多了
至于专业问题,还是好好想想,或者,可以到美国后再转系,或者转学,那就非常容易了~~~~
第一题把and 改为but .起转折作用.
第二题把confirm 改为confirmed.再把倒数第二句中的spirit改为spirites.*(第三人称)
第三题没错
第四题把a改为one 再把activities改为acttions(名词复数)
第五题没错.
第六题把doubt后面的in改为of
然后就就是最后的那二行位置不对.
1. 同意lawrence的看法,最好加重学术性的东西 ( 良好青年,爱同学,爱老师之类就不必了)
内容,结构,文法都需要改进
2. “dear colleagues”不行这么用,要说“to whom it may concern”
3. "he” 或者 “she” 要确定好
4. 建议:请教授用中文写然后翻译一下
重赏之下必有勇夫啊。
