Recently I read about the Bachelor Honours Class and immediately gained interest in the program. With this motivation letter I would like to apply for the Bachelor Honours class
First I would like to introduce myself. I am Mctwigt a student living in Rotterdam. After graduation of pre-university with the profile Economics and Society at the Comenius College I went to study Economics at the Erasmus University. Being in the first year of the Bachelor after the first two blocks I really enjoy studying economics. I would like to mention that I have Dyslexia but I don’t have any problem with it and it sure will not hold me back in doing what I want. I am also very inquisitive and that comes in handy when studying, because of this I do a lot of research to better understand certain aspects of the study and when I run into difficulties I don’t hesitate to ask others about it or try to figure it out on my own. am always very driven and sure about what I want. I am determined to achieve my goals.
The reason that I am interested in the Bachelor Honours Class is because I really like to extend my economic knowledge and have an extra challenge in addition to my study. I enjoy my study in Economics on the Erasmus University very much and have developed an interest in the field of economics. Even though I have dyslexia I like to challenge myself to go further explore my capabilities and broaden my knowledge of economics. When I had a conversation with my mentor he told me that with my grades the Bachelor Honours Class is possible and although my average grade is not an eight he told me that I could try to apply for participation. Being part of the Bachelour Honours Class also means being part of a group of motivated student who know what they want and having a better relationship with the science of economics and the Erasmus University. This is my reason for applying.
I think that I would do well in the Bachelor Honours Class, because I am a motivated student who is driven and straight forward. I am also a student who is determined and shows a large interest in economics and the surrounding aspect of the science, like mathematics for example. I see the Bachelor Honours Class as an expansion to that what I already know about economics and as an extra challenge next to my study. These are the reasons why I would like to be selected for the Bachelor Honours Class.
I would like to explain my interest in this position in person. Looking forward to your reaction.
Being in the first year of the Bachelor after the first two blocks I really enjoy studying economics << rare zin
I would like to mention that I have Dyslexia but I don’t have any problem with it and it sure will not hold me back in doing what I want. << even verder op staat de volgende zin >>
Even though I have dyslexia I like to challenge myself to go further explore my << gebruik deze zin en laat de komma tussen dyslexia and I weg alsmede go tussen to en further weglaten.
I am always very driven and sure about what I want. I am determined to achieve my goals << very driven en determined komt op hetzelfe neer. Wat zijn je doelen dan? probeer deze zin te gebruiken: I got my heart set on becoming the best <wat wil je worden> and i'm willing to do whatever it takes.
I am also very inquisitive and that comes in handy when studying, because of this I do a lot of research to better understand certain aspects of the study. << mooi woord dat inquisitive, ik zou er iets van maken als: i got a very inquisitive nature and because of this (rest van de zin).
and when I run into difficulties I don’t hesitate to ask others about it or try to figure it out on my own. << verwissel de volgorde. Nu klinkt het alsof je eerst anderen vraagt voordat je het zelf probeert. dat komt niet goed over.
I enjoy my study in Economics on the Erasmus University very much and have developed an interest in the field of economics.<< is het niet study on? en hoe ik het lees staat er dat je pas interesse in econom hebt gekregen nadat je bent gaan studeren. wat een beetje raar zou zijn.
The reason that I am interested in the Bachelor Honours Class is because I really like to extend my economic knowledge and have an extra challenge in addition to my study << the reason weg laten. probeer het challenge gedeelte iets netter te laten klinken.
When I had a conversation with my mentor he told me that with my grades the Bachelor Honours Class is possible and although my average grade is not an eight he told me that I could try to apply for participation << maak er: i discussed applying for the bachelour honours with my mentor. het is grade average. misschien: and although my grade average does not meet the required eight, my perseverance and genuine interest will hopefully be taken into account.
Being part of the Bachelour Honours Class also means being part of a group of motivated student who know what they want and having a better relationship with the science of economics and the Erasmus University. << student moet meervoud zijn. also zou ik weglaten.relationship klinkt heel rare in deze context. ik zou het woord: appeals er in proberen te verwerken.
I think that I would do well in the Bachelor Honours Class, because I am a motivated student who is driven and straight forward. << heb je al eens gezegd.
am also a student who is determined and shows a large interest in economics and the surrounding aspect of the science, like mathematics for example. << heb je al eens gezegd.
I see the Bachelor Honours Class as an expansion to that what I already know about economics and as an extra challenge next to my study. These are the reasons why I would like to be selected for the Bachelor Honours Class. << heb je al eens gezegd. misschien: For me the Bachelor Honours Class would be a marvelous way to explore additional facets of Economics and quench my never-ending hunger for information.
Heel veel dingen zou ik veranderen. Het is aan jou zelf waar je het mee eens bent. Je wilt in ieder geval duidelijk maken dat je gemotiveerd bent, dus zorg ervoor dat dit goed over komt.
Ik zou verder de structuur van je brief veranderen want dingen komen dubbel voor (of ik heb fout gekopieerd). Misschien moet je zeggen dat je supergemotiveerd en leergierig bent en daarom denkt dat de bachelor house wel iets voor jou is (direct achter elkaar)
Het is mij in ieder geval wel duidelijk dat je gemotiveerd bent en ook moeite hebt gedaan voor je brief. Maar de zinsopbouw laat nog te wensen over.
