    恭喜雙語部十二年和班潘O同學錄取美國排名第6名，#約翰霍普金斯大學！

    #化困難為力量展現堅忍韌性
    因經歷家中成員面臨健康挑戰，這段歷程成為James投入生物醫學領域前進的動力。正向積極的他，不僅熱衷公益、推動環保、致力於幫助流浪動物，更曾獲#總統志願服務獎。

    James Pan    同學具備以下三項亮點，讓他在申請學校上擁有較佳優勢： 

    亮點一：     目標明確與專業熱忱
    Throughout my application, my passion for the medical field is evident. Whether it’s the personal exigence of my mother’s cancer diagnosis or my grandmother’s struggle with Alzheimer’s, my journey reflects a deep commitment to this path. From choosing biology-related electives to interning at a university lab and competing in science fairs, I’ve consistently demonstrated my enthusiasm for exploring this field further and delving deeper into its possibilities at Johns Hopkins University.
    在我的申請中，對醫學領域的熱情無處不在。無論是因母親癌症診斷的切身經歷，還是祖母與阿爾茨海默症的抗爭，我的故事展現了我對探索此領域的深度承諾。這股熱忱驅使我選擇與生物學相關的選修課，參與大學實驗室實習，並投入各類科學展覽。我相信，在約翰霍普金斯大學這樣的學術殿堂中，我能將這份熱忱推向更高的層次，發掘更多可能性。

    亮點二：主動學習與研究能力
    Although my school didn’t offer opportunities for advanced research, I didn’t back down. Instead, I took the initiative to reach out to a local university professor and, alongside my peers, conducted a year-long research project that earned a prominent award at a science fair. Adapting to the challenges of a professional research environment was far from easy, but our passion and dedication ultimately helped us overcome obstacles and gain the trust of the professor.
    This trust led to a recommendation to collaborate with researchers at National Taiwan University, where I contributed to a project that resulted in a published paper and an opportunity to compete abroad in international science fairs. Rather than being deterred by limited resources or challenges, I embraced them as opportunities to grow.
    The resilience I demonstrated through these experiences highlights my ability to adapt and thrive in any community, showcasing my determination to make the most of every opportunity.
    雖然我的學校並未提供進階研究的資源，但我積極主動聯繫當地大學的教授，與夥伴們進行為期一年的研究專案，最終於科展中獲得殊榮。適應專業研究環境的過程充滿挑戰，但我們的熱忱與投入贏得了教授的信任。這份信任讓我有機會與台灣大學的研究團隊合作，參與了一個發表論文的專案，並獲得國際科展競賽的資格。面對資源有限與多重挑戰，我選擇擁抱這些困難，將其轉化為成長的動力。這段經驗不僅展現了我的韌性，也說明了我能適應並在任何環境中茁壯成長。

    亮點三：多元發展與社會責任
    I also demonstrate a deep passion for helping others. After receiving support from an online tutoring platform, I felt compelled to give back to the community that shaped me. By dedicating significant effort as a tutor, I earned recognition as a top 5% tutor and even received the President’s Volunteer Service Award.In school, I participate in clubs focused on protecting the environment and supporting marginalized elementary students by teaching them English, aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Additionally, I co-founded a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping stray animals. While our resources are limited, we strive to make a meaningful impact with the tools we have.
    除了學術，我也深耕於社會公益。曾經接受過線上教育平台的幫助，我希望回饋這個改變我人生的社群，成為一名傑出的志工老師，並榮獲總統志願服務獎 (President’s Volunteer Service Award)。在校內，我參與了推動環保與支援弱勢小學生的社團活動，並與聯合國永續發展目標（SDGs）接軌。此外，我共同創辦了一個非營利組織，致力於幫助流浪動物。雖然資源有限，我們仍努力用現有工具實現具體的社會影響。

    鼓勵學弟妹見賢思齊，分享申請大學的經驗與訣竅：
    The college application process is undoubtedly a challenging journey, and many students place immense pressure on themselves to aim for prestigious schools. I completely understand this mindset, as I’ve been working toward this goal since elementary school. However, I’ve come to realize that college rankings aren’t everything. A rejection isn’t a reflection of your worth as a person but rather an indication that the college believes you may not be the right fit for their community. In the long run, you’ll find yourself at a school where you truly belong—a place that will support your growth and aspirations.
    Rather than seeing high school accomplishments as merely steps for college applications, it’s important to recognize how much personal growth you gain throughout the journey. The college you attend is just one station in your life, but the experiences and skills you acquire along the way will shape who you become.
    Lastly, you only go through this process once, so make it count. My advice is to start early. As a procrastinator, I didn’t begin my essays until late summer, and even when I had drafts, they required countless revisions—and sometimes rewrites. It’s a normal part of the process. Luck plays a big role too, so trust yourself, start early, and enjoy the journey. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions—I’d be happy to help.


    大學申請是一段挑戰與成長交織的旅程，許多人因為追逐名校而給自己施加了無比的壓力。我非常能理解這種心情，因為自小學以來，我也懷抱著這樣的目標。然而，我逐漸明白，大學排名並非一切。被拒絕不代表你不夠優秀，而只是說明該校可能認為你與他們的社群不夠契合。    最終，你會找到一所真正適合你的學校，它將支持你的成長與夢想。更重要的是，不要將高中所取得的成就僅視為大學申請的墊腳石，而應珍惜過程中所獲得的個人成長。大學僅是人生的一站，而旅程中累積的經驗與技能，才是塑造你未來的關鍵。最後我的提醒是：提早開始！即使我自認是拖延大師，也深刻體會到申請文書的反覆修改是必然的過程。每一稿都需要時間打磨，有時甚至需要推翻重來。運氣在這過程中也扮演著重要角色，但請相信自己，早做準備，享受過程。如果你有任何疑問，歡迎隨時向我聯絡，我很樂意分享更多經驗！
