X-cel class is an honor English class of The Olympia Schools. I heard that this class only has 10 seats for 10 excellent students who are active, love challenging tasks, and desire to become a useful global citizen. Last school year (2015-2016), I was lucky enough to be in 9E, something similar to X-cel class, or it is the X-cel class, but the class was consisted of 18 people at first and 16 people at the end of the year. Some people couldn't handle the heat, so they had to get out of the kitchen. There were homework everyday; we are all exhausted, but I learned tons of English skills and life skills, including baring pressure and anti-procrastination. I know nothing about 10 X-cel, I know that many new talented students are craving do be in this class, but I know for sure I am a part of it.
I am suitable for X-cel class! My picture is hanged in the Hall of Noble; my mind is vibrant and unconventional; my average grade is tremendous even though I haven't put any afford into it, so why not me in the top 10 most excellent students?
I was trying to do the X-cel class application. No one in my former class 9E knows about this, and I do not expect them to know this. However, I find some difficulties while registering on this form: I own a tiny number of extracurricular activities (because I am too poor and too shy to join some), I have not took part in any international English test, and I have no recommendation letter from my teachers (and no one in 9E has it). Therefore, I decide to ignore this application form and head straight to the main point. The 250–word essay, single-spaced, to tell them reasons why I want to apply for X-cel class, how do I plan to become an active member of the Xcel class and how Xcel class help me meet my educational and career goals.
My essay:
"Participating in an honors class is not only an honor for me, but it's also a chance to advance all aspects of my academic performance, especially in later abroad education. After hours researching and asking for X-call students' experiences, I found out that there are plenty benefits I can gain from applying into X-cel class. Personally, I love to finish challenging tasks and critical thinking, and X-cel class was designed to utilize these skills. To become an active member of the X-cel class, I will show my diligence toward my assignments, be hard working, and freely express my thoughts whenever possible, even the most conventional thoughts. Besides finishing in-class tasks and homework, I will do external research and improvement exercises that will support me to accomplish my goals. Socializing and be more open to my classmates will be significant. If I am one of the ten students in this class, I will have more opportunities to obtain essential skills of a global citizen, including problem solving, communicating, concentration, team working, and many other useful life skills. Therefore, I can start to work more professionally and attentively like a university student in an all-star's environment, and I believe my confidence and stress taking level will rise as well. As a ninth grader who plans to study abroad, participating in X-cel class will enhance my college application with impressive scores, so I will be able to apply into higher competent universities and hunt more amount of scholarship. Furthermore, the pressure I am willing to bear in the whole course will help me eliminate my laziness and procrastination, the main threats to my education and career. To conclude, I am exceedingly qualified for X-cel class, a dramatic step of my high school year, as well as my career."
