Subject: Application for Subject Change

Dear Sir,

I am a student of your school currently studying Standard VI. Kindly grant me


permission to switch one of my subjects. I wish to take up French instead of Hindi.

Since I do not have a background in Hindi, I find it very difficult to grasp it. I have been
trying my level best to catch up with the teacher’s explanations for the past year but
am unable to excel in it. This has also resulted in a decline in my overall percentage. I
understand that I will have to work hard as French is a new subject, but I am ready to
take up the challenge. My language teachers have already explained to me the pros
and cons of this decision, and I have discussed the same with my parents too. We all
feel that taking up French is the best option for me at this juncture.

I, therefore, request you to consider my application and grant me your permission to


give up Hindi and study French instead.

Thanking you.

Dearest Grandpa,

Hope you and all at home are in good health. My exams went well and I hope to pass
with flying colors. As suggested by you, I practiced yoga during my exams and am glad
to say that it really helped in calming my nerves. Your academic advisor has always
been beneficial to all of us.

The next step now is to choose the subjects for my junior college years. Our school
teachers stressed upon selecting the subjects wisely with adequate guidance will play
an instrumental role in the profession, we wish to enter. I have been thinking about
this for a while and decided to take your advice on the matter. As you know I wish to
become a psychiatrist and have been researching it. According to what I gather, I will
have to complete my graduation majoring in Psychology and follow it with a Master’s
degree in the same. Thus, it is confirmed that my first subject is will be Psychology.

I need your guidance in selecting the other five subjects. I spoke to my class teacher
about it and she believes that I should select subjects which give me a better
understanding of people and society in general. She suggested subjects like Sociology,
History, and Economics. In her opinion, these subjects which tackle issues that impact
human life or influence behaviour will help me understand people better. I believe
that literature too is a reflection of human behaviour over the ages.

Kindly write back to me with your opinion on this matter. As you are a retired college
principal, I trust your judgment and hope for your assistance. Please give my love and
regards to all at home, especially Grandma.

Thanking you,
Yours affectionately,
Anil Kumar
