I got so meny exciting experiences in ESL school;met many peoplE who came from many different country, saw amny things and enjoyed.
In the junior college, I learned about the American school system and understood American studnets'' life style.

Even though I had great experiences last 2 years, my English has still difficulty to write and speak. But I don''t worry because I know it takes time.

I want to go to UMass because this school is the best school for me. School evironment is good and school size is not too small and not too big.

Here is my goal.I want to study management. I think 3 or 4 years later I would work in the business area in my country or in the U.S.I think to manage something is very difficult but I want to challenge to that area and I will succeed.

Essay Instructions: Notes:

What is a debate proposition?
~ A statement of judgment that identifies the central issues in controversy. Advocates of a proposition want others to accept or reject the proposition.
~ Debate provides for organized argument for and against the proposition: Those arguing in favor of the proposition present the affirmative side; those arguing against it present the negative side.
~ Controversy must be stated in any proposition.
~ The statement of the proposition should always be affirmative in both form and intent - so a poorly stated proposition might say: Resolved: That the jury system should be abolished. Good propositions tell us what can/should be done, rather than simply making a negative statement. Instead, a well-stated proposition might be: Resolved: That juries should be replaced by a panel of three judges. Here the statement represents a decision some affirmative might advocate. In addition, it suggests a form of action, propositions without clear action wind up being difficult to argue.
