How to show an interest in a subject?

One of the most common questions asked by school students is how to show the various universities they apply to, how you have an interest in their particular. You have discuss activities that you have undertaken which show elements of that topic. Take for example Geography even the most routine visits to the local high street can show signs of human geography and the developement undertaken over time. Concepts such as gentrification and modernisation are issues that you could talk about. Even societies, research papers or events could show your interests within the topic

Working through the students interest and how to emphasize them and make them standout is the highest importance for these students.
