Admission Essay Instructions:

I made an outline. Please don't use the same sentence as me. Write it as vividly as possible, and it is presented similarly to a micro-movie narrative. The important thing is not to write so much great philosophy of life.
Paragraph 1: Open with a vignette about being born as a second child in one-child policy times (Could be a debate on the one-child policy, Definition: The one-child policy was a program in China that limited most Chinese families to one child each. It was implemented nationwide by the Chinese government in 1980, and it ended in 2016. The policy was enacted to address the growth rate of the country's population, which the government viewed as too rapid.)
This is where you can use your amazing descriptive language! Paint us a picture!
Paragraph 2: If I touch Aladdin's magic lamp today, I make a wish... My mom was a hero because she made the world a little bit better. But I'm thinking about a question, if she didn't give birth, wouldn't she be a hero?

***think if any other big public policies have really affected your life either in China or the US
Paragraph 4: In this section, we can get some lines that demonstrate your social science interest and the dedication that you put into it.
***Watching historical movies and documentaries
***our research for class and the essay contests
–through all of this, you are continuing to think about how the past influences today and how individual lives are affected
Paragraph 5: Paragraph on your work in the club（I created a platform for online education; the main customer groups are primary and secondary school students from the United States and children in African orphanages. Our goal is to help children below the middle class by providing a rich and diverse curriculum. All of our programs are to fill the gaps in children's education. In three years, we have offered a total of 12 courses and served more than 2000 students）
***Talk about the classes you provide and how they fill a gap in the children’s education （I don't want you to repeat my details above）
***Talk about the time you spend on this
***Talk about how you improved your leadership skills
Paragraph 6: Connect club work to public policy interest

***You saw a need and filled it, but you also know policy needs to change around this
Paragraph 7: ***think about what you think makes a policy successful
Paragraph 8: ***What have you gained, what have you learned, and how about future?

Admission Essay: Social Policy and Social Science, The Intersection
My birth was a contravention of the law.
I was born before 2016, at the tail end of the Chinese One-Child Policy era. Between 1949 and 1980, China’s population increased dramatically from 540 million to 969 million. To curb this population growth, Deng Xiaoping’s government enforced this policy that restricted most couples to only a single offspring. Its, purpose, it was argued, support the country’s economic boom. Enforced by the National Health and Family Planning Commission, violators of the policy faced fines and forced abortions. Second children of parents who could not afford the fines were excluded from the national household system. Consequently, such children did not exist legally and therefore, did not have access to basic social services. The policy, however, had other unforeseen outcomes that caused policymakers to rethink. For instance, the Chinese culture furthered preferences for male children forced abortion of female fetuses, and an imbalance in gender numbers. Being born before 2016, therefore, means my birth was illegal.

Some were forced to live with or bury the painful trauma of forced abortions, sex became a service to the government, literally taking an official tone, and the scrutiny and harassment of women became rampant both within and without households. This was their sacrifice for the realization of the greater goal of slowing down the Country’s population growth. Sometimes it feels like my mother is a hero, not for abandoning the national cause, but for standing up against a policy that was becoming problematic. But again, if she had opted for an abortion, she would still be the hero for supporting government efforts to control population growth.
Being born at this time was confusing. At home, there was always an air of uncertainty and a feeling of concealment. No matter how my parents managed to eliminate it, it always stared back like a migraine. Sometimes it felt like you are the cause of a burden…that your life has people on constant alertness because something could happen at any time. The same was at school and even in the small play spaces and the paddy fields. This, com...
