Used by many of the best schools and colleges in the UK, the beauty of this book is that it guides the reader to excellence by making a daunting process as straightforward as possible. Step-by-step, in easy stages, the book shows you what to write, how to structure your statement, how to be specific. It shows you how to make your personal statement both excellent and individual.
The personal statement helps convince university admissions officers that an applicant should be accepted before hundreds or even thousands of others: it is a life-shaping document - a letter, job application, CV and interview all in one.
Even the very best students - not to mention teachers and parents - find this task difficult and hugely time-consuming.
This book has helped tens of thousands of students achieve their dream and gain a place on their first choice university course. Its step-by-step method leads to personal statements of the very highest quality.
The final pages of the book include a range of successful statements: all led to students receiving offers from their first choice universities.
