Second is your study background. Try hard never die. Make sure you also obtain a good score for your overall GPA so that you have more chance in winning the scholarship over other potential candidates. Third is participation. Make sure you try to participate in the event organized by school, or lecturer so that you can gain more real life experience and confidence in yourself. To me, I gained more confidence in my English, and the way I communicate with people from UC Debate club.”
