　　原文连接：http：//depts。washington。edu/bioe/education/bs-statement。shtml

　　原文内容简述：解释你的兴趣何在，还可以在personal statement中介绍你的重要的或不同寻常的经历，还可以说明你将对生物工程系有何贡献。还可以说明为何有些必修课程成绩不好。生物工程系不限制personal statement的长度。

　　The personal statement should contain an explanation of your interest in Bioengineering。 You may also use the personal statement to relate important or unusual experiences，　such as research，　volunteer work，　or leadership or cultural experiences。 The personal statement is also a place to explain how you could contribute to diversity within the Department of Bioengineering。 Factors that contribute to diversity include，　but are not limited to：　cultural awareness，　activities，　or accomplishments；　educational background and goals；　living experiences，　such as growing up in a disadvantaged or unusual environment；　and special talents。

　　Finally，　you may use a portion of the personal statement to address any academic difficulties，　such as a poor performance one quarter or a low grade in a pre-requisite course。 If your cumulative GPA falls below the 2.5 needed to apply to Bioengineering，　or you have academic problems to explain that are larger than a single course or quarter，　please address this through a formal letter of petition　(see note)　rather than through the personal statement。

　　Length of Essay：　While we do not limit you to one page，　it is important that your essay be well written。 Be clear about what you want to say so that you do not ramble or repeat yourself。
