It sounds like they're checking your ability to communicate in English. My eyebrow went up the moment you said Bangladesh. Additionally, statisticians need to be able to summarize findings in ways that are accessible. Lots of poor writing skills in the sciences, so they may be screening for that as well.

Of course you double-space. That's not cheating.

Take a step back and first decide how you define "accomplishment." Structure your paper accordingly. Draw from your life experience in keeping with the definition you determine for yourself. Being one of ten children would have allowed my XH to discuss his teamwork ability, for example. Having transitioned from another country would allow you (and him) to convey your ability to adapt. There may be some stats thing you grasped with great difficulty in the early years of your program that taught you the value of tenacity.

Use what you've got. Read it aloud. Check for any and all grammatical or stylistic errors. Good luck to you!!

That is RACIAL PROFILING and is NOT legal.

I hope you're not doing this in your own workplace, moron.

Not PP, but a job that requires fluency in English isn't racial profiling.

That's not what the bolded was saying at all.

Please don't sweat this task. For starters, use 1.5 spacing and 12 font. It's the easiest to read. The readers are not going to count every word to make sure you hit 2,000 words.

This is a brief overview of how to write an essay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1KbANXoWlo

Brainstorm, outline, then write. (Your parents background isn't really relevant to your accomplishments unless it motivated you to accomplish something. If it did, fine.) B/f you start writing, make a list of your accomplishments that most clearly relate to the job. If this is a gov't job and you're writing KSA (Knowledge, Skills, Attributes), they are being read by people who are not experienced in your field, so you will need to parrot back words and phrases listed in the KSAs b/c those are the buzzwords that they are looking for.

Truly, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. The thought of the one statistics class I took gives me heart palpitations. However, I would proof read lots of stuff for my friends who were engineers. If you have a friend who is more well versed on this end of things, have them look over your essay. You are an expert in your topic b/c it's about you. You can do this. GL.
