			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>An excerpt from <a href="http://lydblog.wordpress.com/2009/11/01/v-kaufland-li-shte-rabotiat-decata-ti/">a comment in my Bulgarian  blog</a>:</p>
<p>Стефка:</p>
<p>в университета, в който преподавах, имах студентка от беден, западащ град. Благодарение на собствените й амбиции и тези на майка й, беше завършила училище с висок успех и беше изкарала добри резултати на SАТ, озовавайки се в съответния университет. Проблемът обаче беше, че момичето, макар да беше хванало цаката на въпросните тестове, нямаше никакви реални познания и умения за анализ и въпреки огромното си трудолюбие отпадна поради многото изпити, които не са в тестов формат.<br />
Ако това работливо и умно момиче, някой ден завърши дните си в Уолмарт, причината ще бъде именно, че системата никога не й е дала шанс да се развие.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">You thought you may never have the chance to take a seat in a Harvard lecture hall? Well, I took a front row seat tonight; no, I comfortably lay in my front row bed to watch Michael Sandel, one of the most famous Harvard professors, lecture and lead a discussion about what the morally right thing to do is.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This is the first course Harvard has ever made available to everyone. You are even invited to take part in the dicussions online. You are also offered further reading. You can even write some papers on the series &#8230; I&#8217;ll read them <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  You can start a discussion in our forum or in your own blog.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">How is that useful?</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">First, it is useful to improve your listening skills.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Second, it is useful to take a look at a university lecture hall and experience one of the university teaching formats.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Third, it is useful to practice thinking about tough questions.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Fourth, it is useful to get an idea of political philosophy and law.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Fifth, it is useful to be able to tell colleges that you have already attended a good number of lectures to explore the field you claim to be interested in.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">Не ме питай за първите ми впечатления от Cottey. Вече и без това не ги помня, но трябва да са били добри.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">От тогава насам много неща се случиха къде хубави, къде не, НО най-важното е че като цяло съм много доволна и от себе си<br />
и от учителите си, и от LEO програмата.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Това е списъкът с класовете, които взимам този семестър:</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">1.General Chemistry (реших да пропусна Intro Chemistry и да се впусна направо в по-дълбоките води и засега поне, доколкото ми е известно, съм първа в класа)</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">2. Principles of Biology (на този курс продължението му е Genetics, но ще го предлагат чак втората година. Нищо, ще го приживея)</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">3. English Composition 1 (на първите есета май имах B, но на последното имах май А, ако не ме лъже паметта. Не че това има голямо значение, но обяснява защо съм доволна от себе си и от часовете си)</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">4. College Algebra ( дръж се да не паднеш &#8211; американките МЕН ме търсят да им обяснявам по математика. Поне за три случая се сещам. Аз, която до вчера смяташе, че с математика няма да намерим общ език, сега съм поне малко обнадеждена, че ако работя усърдно мога да преборя SAT Math 1)</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">5. Toning and Flexibility (тук вече може да се смееш на воля! това ми покрива 1 credit от физическото или там както го наричат. Много е забавно, голямо потене пада и е много живописно отстрани или поне така ме информираха студентки, които случайно са ни наблюдавали отстрани по време на час)</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">По Biology ми преподава моят advisor. Голяма скица е, все пуска по някоя шега, та целия клас се смее( е, аз от време на време не се смея, защото ми се пада четвъртия час за деня, изморена съм и трудно се концентрирам върху шегите му). Когато си изготвях програмата за първия семестър, той ме попита къде искам да се трансфер-на. Не помня какво точно му отговорих ( то от 18 колежа, кой по-напред да кажа), но със сигурност  споменах Brown и Smith, и май още два. Той, от своя страна, отвърна, че имам добър вкус. И аз така смятам. <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">По химия учителката ми е от Шри Ланка. Тя ми е и supervisor &#8211; не знам дали си спомняш, но работя в Chemistry Lab. Много добре се разбираме. Тя е high-grader (това ли означаваше, че трuдно пише А), но аз засега се справям отлично. Дано догодина пак да работя в Лаба, но и дано вече като senior ми позволят малко по-hard работа. Doing the glassware after having several hours of lectures is not fun at all, но все отнякъде трябва да се започне.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Учителият по English Comp направо го боготворя. Възрастен симпатяга е, много down-то-earth и забавен. Дискусиите в неговите часове ми напомнят за нашите дискусии в курса, като бих добавила, че тук съм малко по-разговорлива. Дори когато съм изморена или притеснена за изпит, тези дискусии ме отпускат. Върху едно есе работим поне една-две седмици, като междувременно му изпращаме е-мейл-и с отговори на въпроси върху това, което учим. Ха-ха-ха, и това ми напомня за теб и курса.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">По математика учителят ми е дребен, симпатичен турчин и много му се кефя. Лекцията ни е в 9 сутринта и доста от класа са все още sleepy. За да ни накара да отговаря ме на въпросите му веднъж ни &#8220;подкупи&#8221; с шоколадови бонбони. Иначе по принцип непрекъсното ни дава една кутия с химикали и моливи, всеки да си вземе каквото поиска.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">За учителя по Toning and Flexibility не мога да кажа много освен, че е много мила и готина. На няколко пъти ме пита как се справям с упражненията, трудно ли ми e, лесно ли ми е и пр.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Общо взето в Cottey се радвам на много personal attention от страна на учителите си. Много си се кефя на факта, че ми преподават international учители и че съм заобиколена от international students. Честно да ти кажа, American students here не ми допадат много-много, но това хич не ме бърка. Не съм дошла тук да ги харесвам, а за да уча и предполагам, че има какво да науча и от тези, които не харесвам. На моменти  разни хора ме ядосват с поведението си, но както Веси ми напомни, перфектни хора и места няма. Понякога се питам кой вятър ме довя в Cottey, но след това се сещам, че Cottey е само началото на всичко прекрасно, което ми предстои. Добре, че и Веси ми го напомня отвреме навреме като се засичаме в Skype. Много съм й благодарна на нея за опората, която ми даде първите дни и дори може би целия първи месец в Cottey. Благодарна съм и на теб, защото,ако не беше ти да ме насочиш, сега щях да зубря лекции в София или Пловдив и да се чудя къде е смисълът в това. Просто системата тук ми допада повече. Въпрос на вкус. Моят е добър и пак трябва да ти кажа Thank you for helping me realize what I want my education to be like. Признавам, че не бях от най-добрите ученици що се отнася до тестовете и темите за SAT, но това, което научих или по-скоро утвърдих за себе си по време на application process  много ми помогна, все още ми помага и ще продължи да ми помага занапред. И го пиша, защото го мисля, а не защото знам, че на вероятно ще го постнеш в блога си.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">А, забравих за leadership програмата. Ходих в Kansas City Zoo на volunteering. Много забавно ми беше. Взех участие и на други activities, но за тях друг път ще ти пиша (все още не съм ги осмислила, но ще го направя в близкото бъдеще и тогава мога да ти пиша какво ново съм научила за себе си и за хората изобщо).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Така, приключвам, че малко се олях пак в писане. Много ще се радвам, ако успеем да се видим скоро. Аз си идвам за Коледа в БГ. Казвам БГ защото все още не знам къде ще съм точно (Хасково, Пловдив, Минерални бани или Левка), но може и да се засечем в Хасково. Много се бях затъжила за семейството ми и за Милена и Марияна, но намерих начин да се чувам с тях по Skype. Който търси, намира и вече бих казала, че няма нищо което да ми липсва тук, в Cottey. Е, отвреме навреме си се сдухвам заради обстановката (Невада не е най-прекрасното място в света), но след това се сещам защо съм тук : за да се забавлявам, докато уча, и да уча, докато се забавлявам, и, разбира се, за да се трансферна някъде (Brown ми е голямата мечта), но каквото сабя покаже.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Aйде стига толкова, че пак се олях. Всичко най най ти желая. Не знам кога пак ще ти пиша (днес по чудо намерих свободно време), но дано се видим скоро по коледно, новогодишно и прочие време. Успех ти желая и не се ядосвай много много с новия курс. Нали знаеш, че всеки следващ е все по-зле. Така е с учениците&#8230; не можеш да им го набиеш в главата, че всичко, което правят, го правят заради себе си.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">P.С.: хе-хе-хе, видя ли как без да искам направих послание към всички следващи твои ученици? хехехе, запазена марка съм <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  от мене все едни такива може да очакваш&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Bye, че трябва да вечерям (щеше да е хубаво да можех без храна, ама не мога:P )</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>You should carefully check about documents with <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">EVERY</span></strong> college.</p>
<p>Some of them accept standard Collegeboard forms like the <a href="http://www.reed.edu/financialaid/pdfs/reed_finaid_ISFAA_1011.pdf">International Student Financial Aid Application</a> , <a href="http://www.reed.edu/financialaid/pdfs/reed_finaid_intlcert_1011.pdf">International Student Certification of Finances</a> , and the <a href="http://www.haverford.edu/financialaid/1011_BFS.pdf">Business/Farm supplement</a> (if your parents have their own business). Be careful with these! If you are applying this season to start school in 2010, you are using the 2009-10 Common Application Form, BUT the Collegeboard financial aid forms should be for 2010-11!!!</p>
<p>If your parents are divorced /never married, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">some</span> colleges might also require the <a href="https://ncprofile.collegeboard.com/ncpWeb/pageflows/Main/NcpMainController.jpf">Noncustodial Profile</a>. As that might be a problem for some of you, we&#8217;ll have to discuss it later. Here is a <a href="https://ncprofile.collegeboard.com/ncpWeb/pageflows/NCP1011/Help/getHelpContent.do?relativePath=/profile/pdfs/1011_ncp_preapp.pdf">form you could use to prepare the information</a>.</p>
<p>However, some colleges might require THEIR OWN FORMS. These might be quite similar to the Collegeboard forms.</p>
<p>You should also provide other documents to verify what you have declared in the forms &#8211; statements from employers, showing your parents&#8217; salaries, etc. Please, find more information about these in older entries in the &#8220;financial aid&#8221; category in this blog. Make sure you prepare them on time! Some documents might need translation into English!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p style="text-align:justify;">When applying for a career oriented course, you have to write a personal statement, explaining how you got interested in the field and how you have developed your interest so far, demonstrating that you have some personal characteristics and skills which will make you a successful student and professional.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Yesterday I read a personal statement which looked like a list. When I asked the student to elaborate on some points, for example his internship with a professional, he said that he had taken a certificate from the professional &#8211; to certify that he has really interned. Hm.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">First, some formats just don&#8217;t give you the opportunity to enclose such documents.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Second, even if they do, such a note does not say much about what you have done and learned.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Third, what if you are interviewed and asked to elaborate on the internship? Are you going to tell them that you have a certificate?</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Talking intelligently about your experiences counts most when applying to college; it cannot be replaced by certificates, even if issued by the US president.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Being unable to talk intelligently sends the message that you are either unintelligent or just boasting about an experience you never had or trying to pass it off as something more special than it really was.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Here is my wisest tip: always imagine you are interviewed about the items you list in your resumes or mention in your essays. That will help you remember more and be self-reflective and coherent.</p>
