Put some effort into your topic!!!! its bad enough to see short posts but a new topic like it is terrible. You have to explain yourself a lot better otherwise it makes it hard for people to help you. Putting your question in the title will NOT do. God ive seen some shit on the forum today :S

write about what you have learnt so far (in school)

write about your interests and why you are interested in them

write about how any skills you have learnt from the above will help you in your future

write about how ace you are (but try and keep it modest, no-one likes a smart arse)

I spent around 3 hours writing mine and when I went to the interview for college (I had 2 interviews, I applied for 2). The first guy like scanned through it not properly reading it and the second one just looked at it and turned the page!!

So the only advice I would give you is stick loads of flashing colourfull things in there like certificates etc!! Maybe a big pop up dinosaur like in them really cool kids books.

I just blabbed on in mine about what I've done, what I've gained from it, what I've leart from it. A little about how punctual, hard-working etc etc, all the good things you are. Get someone to check it for spelling, punctuation etc. Oh and if your hand writing is shit - type it.

This for a college interview or similar? When I had mine, the guy interviewing me just flicked tru my folder and was more interested in my certificates and taken early GCSEs so I'd say put in what needs to be said (look on google or get a template for them from somewhere) and basically, when you have the interview talk normally, get eye contact every so often and be friendly! Good luck.
