Dear Sir,
My name is Liu Yang, from Zhaoyang High School in Chongqing. I am more than glad when I get the news that Hong Kong University will have independent recruitment in mainland. I would like to apply for admission for taking part in the independent recruitment exams of your school.
I am a sixteen－year－old boy, who is studying in Senior 3. I am sociable, easy－going and good at communicating with others. I have made many friends and I can do well in a team. Meanwhile, I am quite independent and it is easy for me to adapt to a new environment. My hobbies are playing basketball and football. I am also good at playing the violin.
As a senior student, I have been working hard at my lessons and managed to get high grades. I am especially good at English and I have won the first prize in the Hope English Speech Contest.
All these will enable me to continue my study in your university without having much trouble with a language barrier.
I should be grateful if you can take my application into consideration.
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Liu Yang
