Besides, I enjoy reading books and articles about Psychology because the ideas presented in them both surprise me and make me wonder. I feel stimulated by the theories of certain professors and I like how these theories challenge my previous concepts of self, humanity and the world. I liked very much Karen Danielsen Horny ’s book, ‘The Neurotic Personality of Our Time’ and ‘Our Inner Conflicts’, Alfred Adler’s ‘Understanding Human Nature’ and ‘The Education of Children’ In recognition of Dr. Horny's opinion, I thought that we can not think about one's psychological state from only one respect, let alone the general psychology applicable to all people. Personally, I respect Freud's and endorse his psychoanalysis theory as well. On the other hand, I believed the psychology not only a social science, but also a science which tightly linked with our happiness and social harmony.
My short term goal after graduation is to secure a career related to the field I specialize in, as a junior consultant. This will form the bedrock of my future career, whereby I would aim to further consolidate my foundation by doing more self-learning and upgrading while on the job. In the longer term, I would ultimately want to accumulate enough experience and funds to set up an organization that is a pioneer in the counseling, treatment and provide special education of adolescence.
It would be of immense honour if I were to be accepted by your esteemed University, which has historical background in abundance, and is also a world renowned institution. The focus on students’ learning and development is unparalleled in your University and I yearn to be a part of it. The knowledge and experience that I can potentially absorb during my studies here would be boundless, lasting a lifetime.
