I rate this candidate highly based on my assessment of these qualifications – I believe she will be able to excel academically in our program while being actively engaged both inside and outside of class due to her impressive set of skills mentioned above as well as what appears to be genuine enthusiasm for engaging with people around tough psychological issues relating to mental health disorders or homelessness.. At the same time however there are some areas that may require further development if this candidate were accepted into our program – communication might be one such area given how much emphasis we place on professional presentations within our coursework so it could help if more attention was paid towards improving verbal articulation skills (einen et al., 2019). This can likely already be done through practice but taking additional classes or workshops specifically designed to hone presentation skills would certainly benefit this individual greatly too given how important they are nowadays especially when pursuing graduate level studies (Strobel & Häusser 2016). Moreover since most scientific research now requires quantitatively rigorous analytical techniques it would also serve this student well if more effort was put into honing those technical abilities einer et al., 2020). This could involve attending conferences related to their research interests or even volunteering within data science laboratories whenever possible so as increase familiarity with quantitative methods employed within laboratory settings . All things considered though I feel confident recommending this candidate for admission into our graduate program due to their overall excellent qualifications coupled with their potential areas of growth should they choose to pursue them .
