Reading my PERSONAL STATEMENT that got me into OXFORD, IMPERIAL and more - Mathematics

- The personal statement is a crucial part of the university application process, and unlike admission exams or interviews, it is mandatory, regardless of the schools you are applying to. Admission tutors read hundreds if not thousands of personal statements every year, so you need to make sure yours stands out, sets you apart from the rest of the candidates. But this doesn’t have to frighten you at all, since we are talking about a personal statement, so it only needs to reflect your own voice, personality and passions.
I hope you find this video useful! If you have any questions regarding the application process, my experience, or about anything else, leave a comment down below or DM me on Instagram!

Problem is I have no purpose at all if im being truly honest with myself
Relatable
@@abuesab97 The purpose doesn't have to come within you. You can embace one from outside of you. Just pick one and commit
@@pendantcetemps...1016 I totally agree with you.

Thank you so much for this
This gave me an insight on how to write my personal statement, Hopefully I’ll get accepted and come back to break the news here 🙏🏾
Best of luck!! 🤞
Any luck?
We need updates
difficult to find the interest about maths although i'm good at that
If you were to rewrite your essay now, how would you have modified it? BTW: I have liked the way you wrote your essay.
I want to study Business And Management and in personal they also ask what's your experience? What Experience I am 19 ?! I can be completely honest but I just cant to put the on words😭😭
Dude such experiences definitely impact your statement ofc but admission tutors know that not everyone (especially 19) was lucky enough to get opportunities to gain some experience
Did you link your the extra-curricular activities to your course/major that you wrote in the fifth paragraph?
I’ve written only that short paragraph about it all, because I had to be brief and stay within the word limit - so I just said that I made maths come alive in a way that’s personal to me through these extracurricular activities.
Okay thank you so much for the reply:D
Thing is though you are clearly incredibly smart so it doesn't really matter what you wrote. How would someone capable but not that gifted get their interest across?
Probably not possible, the competition is incredibly hard
@@montagez3651 true that did not get in
@@ishaansingh204 damn sorry bro
@@montagez3651 it’s all good got imperial that’s all I wanted anyways and glad to see other ppl got their dream
@@ishaansingh204 did you have to do step for your imperial offer?
Thanks,
I want to study accounting and finance or business management but im not good at math..what should I write in my personal statement?
Hey Ioana
Im applying for Oxford Computer Science and i don't have a lot of achievements to show in Computer Science as my school did not hold any competitive exams in Csc. So would you please tell me a few things to include in my personal statement ?
But late, but I suggest taking a few online courses- some colleges offer free lectures as well, so watch those and name drop then in your essay. That'll actually show that you took initiative and that you're passionate enough to study it on your own, which Uni's like.
To apply to Oxford you need to show that your academic achievements are top 1% of the school. If you would like to study Computer science, you can talk about some project or program you wrote in some language, which is above the level of your high school. If you achieve some awards in Olympiads in mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, or Computer Science will give you some advantage as well. There is an entrance Oxford STEP MATHS exam which you need to pass in order to pass to the next stage. Make sure if you mention something in the personal statement, it reflects your interests and passion. They might invite you for the interview where you might be asked to solve difficult problems, they want to see your analytical and critical thinking.
For starters,
1) It's not the STEP, it's the MAT@@gossipopithecus
2) This person wrote and edited this message like 2 years ago so one would assume that this person has already reached university by now.
How was the result?
Please give me same written sample
well shit, that's a hard act to follow ...imagine the poor bastard that went to interview after you.
Did you get accepted or also got a scholarship?
I didn’t apply for scholarships - they don’t really offer a wide variety of them. However, I have taken a credit for my tuition fee from the UK government.
Hey I want to ask 1 doubt. Can you please reply where to ask?😕
Sure, ask away!! :)
@@ioanaroman2947 hey I found you on insta too.. I've asked there..could you please see to it😃
@@ioanaroman2947 Hey I've been waiting for your reply😃
i like your accent .. best wishes
😊
Thank you.Can I have your mail please? Can you Evaluate my Personal Statement?
Esti romancaaa
Daaa 🇹🇩🔥
I regret declining to compete in IMO.
stop capping bro
Hope you don't mind me asking, but what grades did you get in your a levels ?
Considering she represents her country internationally , I’m guessing 4 a stars
@@paulring9246 I'd wager atleast 6 considering what she has done.
@@paulring9246 she s like the girl from our school that is like the perfect girl, but she isn’t, many things done any many incomplete.
Getting at any uni isn’t t rhat bad or hard, remeber that any uni from the west is hard to get because many stundeta aren’t differencing themselves from the majority of the classic good students.
Rhe only way she did this thing is that is took a long eay to difference herself from the rest of her high school. That s why so many don t enter, even with really good grades
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome!! ☺️
