This isn't just a HSF thing either - I am seeing lots of applications that just focus on the departments being world-class/highly ranked. I get that makes a department more appealing, but you need to tell me why you are interested in the subject matter.Its a bit like saying you want to watch Liverpool play football, but yet you aren't telling me why you want to watch football. Why don't you want to watch cricket, basketball or atheletics instead? Are you even interested in sport at all?
