I need to write a 500 word essay for my application, answering all 3 questions. I′ve made some drafts but I need to structure them nicely.

Similarly, before deciding on which university I would like to dedicate the upcoming years, I would like to take a year to become familiar with college life. And taking the Foundation Year at the Maastricht University will certainly make my educational background stronger as well as give access to well-established law degree programs. something that I look forward to is to experience what its like to be a lawyer.

The value in this context is inclusive of the ownership, operations, acquisition, and any other overhead costs of change management, which flows from documentation and training. It is important to note that Total Cost ownership highlights differences between long- term cost and the purchase price. It is a technique used in the analysis of coming up with useful decisions when faced with alternatives.

Also, Emily analyzes the strategies used by students to learn in both distance and face-to-face learning.

The challenges facing Delta Pacific Delta Pacific (DPC) has found itself gradually losing its primary product’s (computer hardware) market share. The reason for this negative development is globalization. In turn, globalization paved the way for free trade and low-cost overseas labor and products. It is against this backdrop that toward the end of the 1990s, DPC leadership noticed that it was no longer untenable for it to compete with cheaper foreign products. Hitherto, DPC had been setting higher prices for its products to match their superior quality. However, current dynamics render the tradition of higher pricing untenable. Foreign-made products were now either surpassing or matching DPC’s mark of quality. Even when redefining its product, some of the sales representatives found difficulty accommodating the changes. Some of the representatives sought after alternative opportunities elsewhere. The time being taken to train employees was also a double-edged sword. As the training sessions helped employees get accustomed to their new roles, employees were spending more time in the classroom than in the field with their clients. This means that DPC could not generate…

RE: SEXUALL EDUCATION PROGRAMME Due to the increasing rate of sex trafficking among the youth, I decided to write to you to put more pressure to the education curriculum board to change the Ontario Sexual Education Curriculum and also to increase the opportunities in sexual education in your school since it has the largest population of teenagers who are the major target in sex trafficking. Though the sexual education curriculum was introduced to the school system of education, it seems that it is not of great help in combating this disaster. I suggest that the curriculum to be changed or upgraded so as to save the lives of these students. This is because many of them are exposed to sex trafficking by other students or members of the community and before they realize, they have already become sex slaves in bondages difficult to cut them off. Moreover, the Toronto Public Health should also be included due to the fact that sex trafficking has a negative impact on the youth. According to the National Human Trafficking Hotline, almost four…
