复试英语问及你的优点和长处

【What are your strengths?】

When it comes to my strengths, I would like to describe it with three key words: patience, diligence, and endurance. I am a patient man/girl, because I know good things take time, especially in academic paper or research work. Diligence is my constant belief. I never get up late and almost devote most of time to study, because I believe if a person is not born to be intelligent, at least you must make sure you are diligent. That is the key to your further study in the future.

I also have a remarkable endurance. I can stand a long-time reading and researching work. Without a strong endurance, a student can not bear the solitude and boredom, therefore will not go further in the academic world.

【What are your weaknesses?】

In terms of my weakness, I am not good at relieving my pressure, which derives from my high requirements about myself. I allow no more leisure in my life, so sometimes I felt tired physically and mentally.

Last month, I have read some books to learn some hints to make a better balance between my study and life and I believe the future will witness my continuous progress to overcome my shortcoming.

But actually to be an all-around postgraduate student, you must stand up with some unbearable pressure. No achievement is obtained in leisure and pleasure.
