申请专业分析 学生本科药学，申请化学，有机化学方向的博士，专业上的跨度还是比较大的。不

过学生在助研的经历中，有一些专业方面的准备。
审理周期
该学生是9月初转案的，当初定了一所南加大。但是后期顾问告知这所院校不操作。后续学生这里出了一些问题。二次转案是在11月末操作的，当时定了13所院校，大多截止日期是12月15。因此留给文案的操作时间很有限。
好在是学生自己，乃至学生爸爸的主观性都很强，他们参与了申请的过程，并且能够自己填写一些网申中教授相关的信息和刷卡提交。
背景分析
素材挖掘

• 文书思路 首次反馈时指导学生完成了一些重要信息的节点，内容和成果。
  1） Your preparation for grauate stuy。
  重要的科研和比赛实践经历，请按照下面的信息点提供信息。这个请一定再花时间重新整理一下，因为我看你目前的文书信息表和简历中对于项目的表述，在起始时间和内容上都有细微的差别。
  科研项目名称：
  担任职位：
  项目指导老师：
  项目内容：
  项目成果：如有paper，可发给文案了解一下。
  2） The area that interests you。请再描述一下自己对有机合成产生兴趣的起源，发展。以及在此基础上，客观说一下自己有哪些优势，有哪些不足？
  3） Your unerstaning of the intene program. 你在选择项目时参考了哪些因素呢？是否去了解过课程设置和faculty，有没有很感兴趣的呢？
  4） What is especially important to you? 对你来说，什么是重要的？这个问题不受限，你自由发挥，我可以通过这个更多的了解你，确定PS行文的思路和逻辑。

学生未二次转案前，一方面给学生整理出简历和套磁信，一方面积极了解学生的套磁进度和定校倾向，为后续的PS写作做准备。

PS写作，开头突出爷爷，微量元素的专家，在化学领域的突出贡献对自己的影响。

然后正文部分，从高中的时候参加过化学奥林匹克竞赛，到大学的化学课程，再到医学化学和有机化学相关的研究，自己对化学的兴趣日渐浓厚。
结果出体现自己远大的报复。Organic synthesis, in my eyes, is a kin of art. It requires rigorous attitue an soli founation on the one han an imagination an smartness on the other. In my longing Ph.D. stuy, I woul eicate myself to the research on organic chemistry. I truly believe that breakthrough in more creative synthetic methos to the efficiency an economy irection will help break many current limits in the stuy of meicinal chemistry an bring novel theories of organic chemistry in real setting.
专家分析及文书亮点
案例总结 1）博士申请的ealine一般是12月1，或12月15。因为顾问老师们应该引此为鉴，早点定校转案，给文案更充裕的时间进行文书的操作。
2）虽然该学生主观性很强，对网申等操作都非常了解。但是她自己提交申请时也有失误，比如说东北，学生刷卡后就没有返回applyyourself网申系统再次签字提交。
