| Helping people with their Personal Statements of Purpose for graduate or advanced professional study, a residency program, or other employement is much more than a way to make a living. It is also our spiritual expression and social contribution. We like helping people and we are proud of our service to others. |
| Space is limited in Agriculture Programs and Careers and some applicants are turned away primarily on the basis of a weak essay. Please note that your competition often uses professional help. |
| We edit/write dozens of Personal Statements of Purpose for graduate study each month and it is something that we have come to enjoy very much, take very seriously, and have gotten especially good at doing. We have spent many years investigating what makes a Personal Statement or Statement of Purpose as effective as possible. And we have spent many years paying special attention to what programs and institutions in the area of Agriculture or Food Science are looking for in applicants: specific qualities, interests, and characteristics that we will emphasize in your essay. Character is especially critical and we are experts at making you look exceptional. It is all in the wording and our team has what we like to think is a natural gift for statement expression. |

| All we need are a few paragraphs of a rough essay telling us who you are and why you seek admission to a specific program. We always respond to the specific questions asked by the particular program to which you are applying. Most clients fill out our fillable form interview first. A resume is also very helpful. In addition, we may send you several interview questions by email or Yahoo Messenger, if necessary, and we use this material as building blocks to write your essay. We also like to visit the web site of the program that you are applying to so that your essay is correctly tailored to the particular program and university in question. It is of central importance that you accurately describe your dreams and visions for what you would most like to become professionally in the future, especially in the long term. Let's work together as a team to create a masterpiece! |
| Multiple Drafts to Different Schools At StatementsofPurpose.com, We work with many clients who are applying to more than one school. We have worked with clients who have applied to as many as 12 different graduate departments at the same time. Those applying to around 6 or 7 schools are much more common. The other magic number appears to be three schools. And, one has to deal with the fact that, the more schools that you apply to, the more one finds oneself stretching the truth a bit, telling each school, more or less, that this particular program is one's first choice, at least implying that this is the case. This part is very important and the wording here needs to be subtle. We suggest saying something like: "I am convinced that X department at Y University is the best match for the directions of my research interests and my very high level of motivation." We also recommend that you include one to three sentences detailing which professors you especially look forward to studying under. When you take into consideration the fact that we do each additional draft for as little as $40.00 each, and that we do a review not only of the department but also the faculty and their individual research interests, our price is very economical and represents a very sound investment in your future. No matter how many schools that you apply to, you MUST tailor each essay to each program. A general essay simply will not do. This is why our service of tailoring each draft to that particular department is of such critical importance. |
| Writing Sample In addition to a given university's application requirements, each department often has special or specific requirements, and this sometimes includes a writing sample from all applicants to the graduate program. The admissions committees are looking for a Senior Paper, Honors or Master's Thesis, published paper, or comparable written work giving evidence of both writing ability and the capacity for research, analysis, and original thought at the graduate level, and demonstrating the ability to use theory in relation to evidence. Papers originally written in a language other than English must be submitted in English translation. Other things being equal, a short, effectively written sample is preferable to a longer sample. If you decide to submit a longer sample, you should indicate which 10-12 pages should be reviewed by the admissions committee. We would be happy to review and edit your writing sample as well as helping you with your Statement. The two should be carefully coordinated and this can be one of the most important features of our service |
| The Personal Statement of Purpose The Personal Statement or Statement of Purpose is the single most important part of your application. While information on your past work is important, it is only relevant insofar as it helps the admissions committee to better understand and appreciate why you want to focus on the problems that currently interest you. In other words, the admissions committee is primarily concerned with learning about your current and future research interests and how they coincide, in other words, how the research that you have already done has prepared you for the research that you want to do in the future. A shorter Statement of Purpose or Personal Statement that is clearly written is generally better than a longer one. A Statement longer than one to three pages of normal type and normal margin is generally considered less favorable than the recommended statement of shorter length. A successful personal statement is a literate, elegantly written essay in which the student highlights her strong preparation for her intended area of study, articulates her planned area of study and her goals after completing this study, and demonstrates her facility with current theory and practice in this area. In other words, why do you want to go to study Agriculture or Food Science? How have you prepared for graduate study thus far? What will you study when you are there? What theories and methods do you find most congenial in terms of your area of study? With whom do you want to study, and why? Name the scholars you've found most inspirational or influential. You must state your reasons for wanting to attend THAT particular graduate program. And finally, what do you plan to do with this degree once you earn it? |
| Dr. Edinger has a Ph.D from the University of Southern California in Religion and Social Ethics and a Master's degree in the same field from Indiana University. He also attended the University of Illinois for one year where he taught in the Intensive English Institute. The photo on the right is of him at a party with some of his students (in the black T-shirt). The following school year, he had the privilege of teaching in the Department of English Philology at the University of Barcelona in Spain. He has also taught at the University of Southern California, Indiana University, and the National Universities of El Salvador and Nicaragua and taught Business English at the Seoul National University of Technology and Shin Heung College in South Korea (1997-98). For the last decade, in addition to helping clients with their Personal Statements of Purpose, he and his family have lived and worked in Central America, mostly Guatemala. These days, he dreams in Spanish. Yet, he did not learn the first word of Spanish until his third year of graduate school. This illustrates how graduate school can radically shape your life in patterns that you cannot foresee. |
| We develop a special focus with our service on character, creativity, and contribution to society. We think that it is important to portray yourself as a diverse individual with cosmopolitan interests and a deep appreciation for service to society. Those students who have creative ideas concerning the area in which they would like to specialize and for their long term goals or plans, simply have an edge. And those students who demonstrate that they are caring people, sociable, agreeable, and team players, also have an advantage. Professionals in Agriculture are no exception, also serving as role models to the next generation. It is important that you sumit an eloquent essay that successfully conveys to the admissions committee the assets, gifts, and relevant experience that you have had, so that they are convinced that you are a competitive candidate for admission. We help develop the material that you submit into the kind of essay where admissions committee members feel like they already know you a little bit and look forward to meeting you in person and working with you in their program. |
| Your Strategic Investment The Statement of Purpose or Personal Statement is enormously important since it serves as a basis for admissions committees to choose between otherwise equally qualified applicants. We work together with our clients as a team to produce the most effective Statement possible. Usually, if our clients have a resume or CV, they send it to us. They also tell us why they want to study in that particular field. We work with the rough draft that the client has written and/orsubmitted through our fillable form, using the information like building blocks, organizing and rewriting it to be as effective as possible. As stated above, we need at least a very rough couple of paragraphs that provide us with basic information. Then we often interview you by email and/or Yahoo Messenger to the extent to which it is necessary, asking you relevant questions. You need to tell the admissions committee why you want to attend their program at that particular university. Often, there is a combination of factors involved, the quality and the special focus of the program, as well as its location. Local area resources are sometimes very important. Many applicants, for example, are already well established in the area where they apply to go to school. You are competing against numerous other candidates; this is especially true with respect to financial aid. What you have to do, therefore, is convince the committee that for one reason or another you deserve the position more than other candidates. Include in your rough draft anything that you think will help to bolster your argument that you are someone with an exceptional moral/social character: professional experience, extracurricular activities, especially volunteer work, even hobbies. The other way to look at this is that the committee is searching for people that they would like to have in their department, pleasant, interesting people. We believe strongly that they also like people who are generally interested in the welfare of others. Graduate schools are very tied to numbers; your grades and exam scores are the single most important factors, because they represent objective evidence of your qualifications. This is one of the reasons why it is a good idea, in most cases, to apply to more than one school, usually at least three, and schools with a varied range of selectiveness. Thus, if you do not get accepted at your first or second choice, at least you might be accepted somewhere. The committee has to choose between many students with more or less good scores and this is where the Personal Statement comes in: it makes the final difference. When forced to choose between two well qualified applicants with very similar exam scores, the committee will choose the student that they think has the most creative ideas because they will see that student as most deserving of the opportunity. If your grades or exam scores are low, you should explain why (sickness, employment, etc.) and this is done in your Personal Statement of Purpose. |
| Your Guarantee The most important guarantee that you have that our service is 100% reliable, that we will be there for you to do all that we can to help you through this process in a timely fashion, is the fact that we depend heavily on word of mouth recommendations to get additional clients. Many of our clients have been recommended to us by a friend or associate. People who are in the process of applying to graduate school, generally speaking, also have friends who are more or less at the same point in their career development, your colleagues, people who you are graduating with from your undergraduate program. If you are pleased with our service, then please recommend us to your friends. Please rest assured that we will work to the full extent of our ability to make your application as effective as possible. We will be there for you throughout the process, to advise you and answer any questions that you might have concerning your application process. Send us anything and everything that you think might be helpful. Please remember that It is of critical importance that you let us know right away how long the Statement(s) should be since different departments have different length requirements. |
| "Wow, this is a powerful essay. Not only will this help me with my application, but it will set the standard of quality, reflection, and consciousness I aspire to! |
| Amazing!!! That's what I got to say. It is incredible and you pretty much put everything I had in mind of writing, on paper. I like the way you combined and included my travels and linguistic abilities in the statement. It's EXCELLENT ! I even had one of my good friends read it, and they said the same thing. I guess you have a passion for writing. |
| Recent Testimonies of very pleased clients that illustrate what we struggle to do with each Statement that we write. |
| Our price for this service begins at only $125.00, depending on the length of your material. Our service is especially useful for those clients who are applying to several schools since we research these programs on your behalf, on both university and department web sites, so as to tell the admissions committee why you are especially compatible with that particular program, and this is often the key to success. If you apply to 10 schools, for example, we can provide you with 9 additional drafts at a very reasonable price, each tailored to a specific program. This could be an especially important, strategic investment on your part. Please be sure to confirm the precise length limit for each of the schools to which you are applying, in either words, pages, or characters and also spacing. In some cases, we end up writing drafts of several different lengths, most frequently 500, 750, 1000, 1500 or 2000 words. Our reasonable prices and the rapid (no rush charge) and extremely high quality of our service is an opportunity that we hope you will tell your friends and colleagues about, as we depend on word of word-of-mouth recommendation for finding additional clients. |
