Hello! So from the video, i think it’s safe to say that it’s okay cover a variety of topics in your ps rather than delving into 1 or 2 topics ? Please correct me if I’m wrong ! A

Hi! It's definitely ok to cover multiple topics in your personal statement but just make sure you have enough space to talk about some in depth. The tutors want to see your though processes, so it's probably not helpful to just list 20 topics. Sorry, we can't give more specific advice as every personal statement is individual! Hope this helps :)
