Biodata (Blog Post #6)
I am currently a third year undergraduate at National University of Singapore, majoring in Applied Mathematics. I had joined the Science Volunteer Corp, Science Club in 2007 and was appointed as the logistics head. Negotiating skill and ability in problem solving had allowed success in the planning and organizing of a fund-raising event, “Alive’08”. As an easy-going and cheerful person, I was able to get along and worked very well with the other members of the committee. I had worked in the Singapore Department of Statistics and was quite interested in it. I’m quite observant and sensitive to numbers and so was able to contribute in their publication while working as their statistical assistant.

Hello Daijing! Your biodata portrays you as an analytical individual. I felt that your biodata had a good mix of academic as well as non academic aspects. It also highlighted a couple of your strengths which allowed readers to understand you a little better. Overall, your biodata is very well organized and informative and makes readers with the same interest want to read more! =)
Hi groupmate! Overall, I think that you managed to strike a good balance between presenting both your achievements and personality traits. It is impressive how you managed to link your strengths to the positions that you held. However, I feel that your third sentence seems a little incorrect in its structure. Also, I think you may want to check the tense agreement in the forth sentence (able to get along and worked very well...). In any case, it was a well-written biodata of yourself. (:
Alright! Another Applied Mathematics major!
Good balance and well-organized biodata. How about adding how studying Mathematics has changed the way you think or solve problems. Or why you chose to study Mathematics!
Hi Dai Jing, you might want to personalise the third statement by stating clearly that it was YOUR "negotiating skill and ability in problem solving" that helped make the fund-raising event a successful one.
Watch your tenses. Eg. Use the past tense instead of the past perfect in this sentence "I had joined the ....in 2007. Also, change the preposition "in" in the last sentence.
Overall, an informative post which not only provides details about your work experience but also highlights certain personality traits.
