PREFACEBelieve That You Can Pass the UPCAT!by Leopold Laset

Do you sometimes find it hard to believe that your dream to pass the UPCAT can become a reality? If so, then there issomething very important that you need to know.

UPCAT is for dreamers like you.

Every student who passed the UPCAT began thinking or dreaming of passing the UPCAT.

Your near-perfect or perfect score in a quarterly test, your cellphone, PSP, or any gadget, your out-of-town (or out-of-country) vacation, your new pair of shoes, and any other stuff that you desired and now possess - are all the result of your‘dream come true’.

What this means is that throughout your lifetime, you have had an idea, you have desired for many things and workedhard for them, overcome problems and ultimately transformed your dream into reality.

And if hundreds and thousands of students have been able to pass the UPCAT in the past, by starting with a dream, thenit stands to reason, that you can do it too.

Often we make the mistake of thinking that UPCAT is for a small number of bright students who have the brains andintelligence that we don’t possess.

But this is simply not true.

The fact that thousands of average students have brought their dreams of passing the UPCAT to fruition in the pastdemonstrates that the opportunity to qualify in the UPCAT is something that is available to each UPCAT aspirant –average or bright.

Right now, hundreds of UPCAT dreamers are taking the steps necessary to achieve the goals of passing the UPCAT.Some are studying this early, some are joining community of fellow dreamers, and some are attending review classes.What is it that you need to do?

In order to achieve your goal of passing the UPCAT, the only things you really need are:

(1) A crystal clear picture that you already passed the UPCAT(2) An unshakeable determination to do whatever it takes to make your dream of passing the UPCAT a reality

As soon as you take these two steps, passing the UPCAT becomes achievable. If you need a help – you look for it. If youencounter a difficult concept – you find a way to understand it. If you can’t solve a math problem – you try and try andpractice more.

And gradually, step-by-step, you bring your UPCAT dream into reality to join the dreams of the thousands of UPCATdreamers who have gone before you.

So today I’d like to encourage you to believe in yourself and appreciate the fact that you live in a world where ‘dreams docome true’.

Understand that thousands of students have made their UPCAT dream a reality in the past – Thousands more will maketheir UPCAT dream a reality in the near future and you CAN be one of them.

Passage 3: It is not easy to write a familiar style. Many people mistake a familiar for a vulgar

style, and suppose that to write without affection is to write at random. On the contrary, there is nothing that requires more precision, and, if I maexpression, than the style I am speaking of. It utterly rejects not only all unmeaning pomp, but all low, cant phrases, and loose, unconnected slipshod allusions. It is not to take the first word that offers, but the best word in commonwords together in any combination we please, but to follow and avail ourselves of the true idiom of the language. To write a genuine familiar or truly English style is to write as anyone would speak in common conversation who had aand choice of words, or who could discourse with ease, force, and perspicuity, setting aside all pedantic and oratorical flourishes. Or, to give another illustration, to write naturally is the same thing in regard to common conversation aregard to common speech. It does not follow that it is an easy thing to give the true accent and inflection to the words you utter, because you do not attempt to rise above the level of ordinary life and colloquial speaking. You dthe solemnity of the pulpit, or the tone of stage declamation; neither are you at liberty to gabble on at a venture, without emphasis or discretion, or to resort to vulgar dialect or clownish pronunciation. You must steer a middle coudown to a given appropriate articulation, which is determined by habitual associations between sense and sound, and which you can only hit by entering into the author’s meaning, as you must find the proper words and style to express yoursyour thoughts on the subject you have to write about. Anyone may mouth out a passage with theatrical cadence, or get upon stilts to tell his thoughts; but to write or speak with propriety and simplicity is a more difficult task. Thus it is eapompous style, to use a word twice as big as the thing you want to express: it is not easy to pitch upon the very word that exactly fits it. Out of eight or ten words equally common, equally intelligible, with nearly equal pretensions, it isnicety and discrimination to pick out the very one the preferableness of which is
