Dear xx,
Ever since my little sister became a teenager and started going through herrebellious phrase I just haven't been able to help myself from analysing herbehaviour. Although she grew out of her moody phase my interest in Psychologydidn't change and I find that I regularly am examining the behaviour ofdifferent members of my family. Psychological and social theories and analyseshave become a feature of my life, whether it is at home or the outside world.Having gained a good grounding in Psychology during my time at school andcollege I realise that this is not enough and that there is so much more for meto appreciate and understand.
The A level Psychology syllabus has confirmed my commitment to Psychology,and encouraged me to challenge and expand upon my perceptions of the subject.The diversity of developmental and cognitive thought I have discovered, in JeanPiaget’s experiments for instance, has made me curious, and led me to researchexperiments including Margaret Donaldson’s ‘Children’s Minds’ which drew myattention to the social context in which a child learns and the child’sunderstanding of that context. What is most intriguing is the fact that childrenare actively working out what the experimenter wants and may well misjudge thesituation through no fault of their own which contradicts Piaget’s theory onConservation.
I feel the A-Levels I study have a number of transferable skills andcomplects in aiding the study of Psychology. I enjoy Economics because we lookat the real cost of making choices and also I have learnt how concepts andtheories provide a tool to help me understand how economies work and develop. Ihave found Adam Smiths theory on ‘Invisible Hand’ most striking because itfocuses on the ideas of capitalism, a person pursuing self-interest will resultin an increase in the common good. Studying Law has given me an insight into thefundamentals that make up our English Legal System and has helped me realisethat the rule of law is crucial in providing a basis for trust andpredictability. Both these subjects have taught me to develop my analytical andeva luative skills, and also problem solving skills. I believe all the qualitiesI have gained through my courses are essential in order to strengthen mycompetence.
In my spare time, I take pleasure in reading be it short stories or neverending novels. I enjoy playing badminton and tennis: being a member of my localtennis club has enabled me to interact with other people who share similarinterests. Something which I find significant is the belief that every one of uscan make the world a better place be it by helping others. As someone pointedout “We have two hands, one to help yourself the second to help others”. I ambeen fortunate to take part in charitable events raising money for organisationsranging from Breast Cancer to Aids. My remaining free time goes in working as asales adviser. The retail experience has given me a great insight in to myinterpersonal skills and taught me how to deal with a various range ofsituations efficiently I would be an asset to your university and am veryenthusiastic about my subjects. The course you offer will broaden my knowledge,satisfy my curiosity and deepen my understanding; I am very determined andthoughtful, and would find the course you offer highly motivating
Yours sincerely,
xxx
