Im applying to Warsaw School of Economics in Poland, in hope that i

would be able to be placed in a new environment to immerse in a culture

that is different from my own and to experience life independently. Most
importantly WSE is a key choice as it is a specialized university in the
area of Economics which is my intended major. Also it would be an
opportunity to not only interact with individuals coming from an array of
different backgrounds but a chance to learn economics from another
university's perspectives.
On a whole, i am a rather adventurous individual and i absolutely enjoy
exploring new cultures and places. Poland is a country full of rich history
and culture waiting to be explored, hence in my travel to Poland i'd wish
to be exposed to such new knowledge. In my past academic years i have
been involved in both sports and the arts. I was part of the Saints touch
rugby team in which i participated in various competitions. Prior to that, i
was exposed to the world of theatre when i joined Anderson Theatre
Circle (ATC) as a budding dramatist. During which i took part in the
Singapore Youth Festival performances. I also represented my school as a
core group representative in 2007's Temasek Seminar where we
formulated rules for the tagline competition and planned the awards
ceremony.
My time in NUS has gradually made me more determined about excelling
in the area of Economics, my intended major of study. In semester 1, i
averaged a CAP score of 4.25.
