@@juniorsiziba2488 amazing - hope to see you soon
Good morning Dr. Amina Yonis am Justice currently applying for my MSc in the UK and your videos have really been of great help to me.
I was able to prepare my personal statement for my degree but I will like it to be reviewed by you in which I followed the link to ensure my wish comes to pass but the required fee which is a good idea I'm not able to afford it at all so I'm here to request your help if there's a way you could still assist me with doing the review I will really be grateful to you if you accept my request.
Thank you ma
I was genuinely considering dropping out and taking a gap year because I just couldn't put together a personal statement and felt like I didn't have enough experience. This how to was so clear and really helped me quantify what exactly I needed to put in and I am very thankful to you for allowing me to apply to uni this year, liked n subbed :)
Did you get in??! :)
@Ofus Tutorials how did it go??
Same, I couldn’t start for 2 months and even had depression until I found this video
@@alisherzak it’s only a personal statement holy fuck
@@SK-zf6fe yeah but it might make or break as to whether you get into uni
what she said we wld get: a draft
what i got: a draft
SHE DELIVERED!!!!!!
I was really struggling here thank you so much xx
Glad I could help!
I have been putting off writing this paper for a week and you gave me a rough draft in literally 10 minutes. You are a lifesaver. Thank you so much!
Did you get the placement from this personal statement?
The way this video condensed a week worth of researching on what to put in a personal statement, how to structure it, PLUS prompts and alternatives to get you started??? Impeccable.
Broooo she's amazing
Who else liked before watching ❤️
Me

I've watched so many personal statement videos and this is the only one where at the end of watching it, I actually had a clear and straightforward outline of what I should include in my personal statement. this was super helpful thank you so much!
Wow, thank you! Glad it helped :)
I had a personal statement to write and had no clue where to start - up pops this video and I now both have a draft and clarity on what to write - THANK YOU SO MUCH!! xx
You literally saved me, thank you. i was so lost before this video.
You made it simple for us. Writing personal statements has been a headache. Always think what I drafted isn’t worth it. I’m killing it this time. Thank you so much for your time and everything.
You're welcome!
Came back to your video just to say I watched this video and followed the steps and I got accepted to the unis I applied to! Thank you so much!! I wrote my PS last minute and my teachers weren’t of much help. This video was perfect and all your advice was amazing.
For people applying I’d say follow her tips and also make sure you get people to check your statement. Start writing it early one. The earlier you write it the less you’d stress about it and rush it. Also, start preparing for interviews now and do extensive research on the subject you want to study. Good luck everyone!!
I was feeling difficult starting the personal statement. This 10 min video has made me really finish jotting down points and it looks like half the job is done. thanks a ton for this video:)
I'm so glad! You've got this!
I was was about to write a personal statement for a PhD scholarship and watching several videos to get ideas. I found that this 10 minute video is the most informative one. Thank you for sharing it.
Thank you so much! I didn’t think I could write a personal statement seeing that I have been out of school for a few year’s and also given the pandemic. While watching your video and actively jotting down ideas I realized that I could actually write a really great personal statement! Thank you again! 😃
I used your videos on personal statements and I got offered a place on a masters course🤩 thank you so much!
TRULY HELPFUL. I was having a hard time making a personal statement. I don't even know how to start one but you are totally awesome at teaching these. I immediately made a draft thanks to your video ☺️
Perfect timing. I didn't know how to start and I need to hand it in soon. I found this so beneficial. Jazakallah. Thankyou so much.
Thank you!! This, by far, has been the most pragmatic approach I’ve seen yet. Bravo!!
Thank you, this was the most helpful video for personal statements ever because you talked about what the break down is and what to put into the personal statement in broader terms and this allows viewers to tailor their own voice into their personal statement.
This is the only video where I found solid, actionable steps and a clear format for writing a great personal statement. I liked that Dr.Amina was concise and to the point, did not waste my time yet still gave excellent points. Thank You sincerely!
I've been watching different personal statement videos and most of them felt like they were too long and did not help me feel less overwhelmed in writing one for various REUs and internships I've been trying to apply for. This video was genuinely so helpful in helping me organize my thoughts in writing and was so clear and concise! Thank you so much this has been a great guide :))
im so grateful for watching this omg I struggled so much trying to pinpoint what I wanted my personal statement to be like which resulted in so much stress. I didn't think I could do it but now I have a good draft which is better than what I expected. thank you so much amina, you're amazing!!
Off all the videos I have watched about personal statements, this is by far the best. I don't need to look anymore for assistance. You did it. Perfectly. I so appreciate you taking the time to do this for us. I can't believe this was only a 12 minute video. you gained a subscriber. now off to watch "what not to do!" thank you so much. I am well on my way now. appreciate. it. so much.
everyone struggling to write a personal statement should watch this video
10/10
thank you so much
😂😂😂 Wow!! This was magic!! When the video was done, I looked at my draft, then I finally understood what they meant my "Letting the reviewers see you through your PS". I am sincerely grateful, it was worth the watch by all standards and indeed has given me a draft in 10mins!! You're amazing Dr. Aisha.. Shukran!
Okay this video has been a lifesaver as I apply for grad school!!!!! I am an engineer switching to education, so writing is far from my strong suit, but this definitely made the entire writing process soooo much less dreadful! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU DR. AMINA!!
This is so clear and helpful!!! It helped me break down exactly what I should and shouldn't put in my personal statement!! Before I was struggling to get enough content and explain it well, now I'm going to have too many specific experience and will need to cut it down. Thank you so much!!
GOD BLESS YOU! I have literally been afraid of and avoiding writing my personal statement. But now I think I can write down something that actually makes sense.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Even with essay questions i wasnt sure how to answer these questions properly. I truly appreciate this. I was able to fix my drafts within 15 minutes. I am truly confident in my personal statement! Thank you so muchhhh
Thank you so much for this video! I wasn't sure how to get started on writing my personal statement and really needed some direction. I'm terrible at highlighting my strengths and achievements, but as I followed along with your video, I kept getting ideas and excitedly wrote them down. Now I feel like I have all the tools necessary to write an amazing personal statement. I'm so happy I found your video! Take care. :)
OMG thank you so much!! So helpful. Have been procrastinating my personal statement for so long out of fear and writers block and not knowing exactly what to include. The note taking throughout was especially helpful!
I love how you added the link to work experience during lockdown. I'll be participating in a photography competition now inshallah!
this is possibly one of the most useful videos i have come across. the prompts you gave worked so well and i have now got an 8000 character long first draft of my personal statement, when before this, i had no idea how to start. thank you so much! now i just have to work on refining it a lot more, which is much easier than having to start from scratch :)
This was so helpful! I already had an outline planned out but I hated it and felt that I didn't have enough experience to write about. Your video helped me come up with a theme that is genuine to my interests and see connections between my experiences that I previously hadn't. I finally feel motivated to start writing!
I swear this is the best personal statement video I have come across so far ><
God bless u x
i've been putting off my personal statement ! so glad your video popped up 🤍
Thank you so much! I've been so behind on my personal statement and have been really struggling with where to start, but now having all of this actually down on paper with an actual structure to it makes me feel so much more confident! 😁
This had been really helpful... I have been putting off writing this for a long time now but after watching this video, I am more than ready. Let get down to writing. Thank you Dr Amina
Your whole channel is such a big help honestly.
thank you so much, ive been struggling to write a statement for weeks now because I had no idea how to structure it but this video has helped me immensely
This is exactly the video I needed this week 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Watching this nearly 2 years later this video was posted and this has certainly been thought provoking and helped me to begin drafting my personal statement. Thank you very much. Video was brief but comprehensive.
I'm applying for apprenticeship today. I'll come back to inform if I got the position or not.
Thank you for the information, at least I got to write something on the paper!!
I watched your video twice, I only listened the first time, so the second time I took your suggestion to get a pen and write down and pause the video along the way. I cannot believe it but I actually have double the word count required in a quick rough draft alone! I have been suffering over this personal statement for weeks and I finally have a full first draft. I am sooo grateful for your video and suggestions, I cannot thank you enough ❤
This was hugely helpful, I have been putting this off for months feeling overwhelmed and unsure of myself. Thank you!
By far the BEST video I’ve seen on how to write a personal statements!
Rlly perfect
Helping my baby sis write her PS, you are a God send, Bless you Amina x
I'm really grateful for this video. I followed your advice and I just got accepted. Thank you so much 💓
This is one of the best videos on writing a personal statement Ive seen!
Thank you Dr Yonis, I am a mature student looking for some advise as I've decided at this time in my life I would like to go to university. This video has been a HUGE help, getting me in the right frame of mind with where to start and how to write a personal statement.
I CAN believe she was able to help me!! I I know to expect quality help from this lady!! Thank you so much!! 💕✨
I cant believe that you helped me so much. You did so much more than any of my university advisors. Amazing! Thank you!
Thank you so much. Honestly thank you.This video was so helpful, I did my first draft in literally 10 minutes.
The best and the most practical video I've ever seen about writing a personal statement. Alhamdulillah, God bless you Dr. Yonis.
Thank you so much Dr. 💜
I have finally written a first draft after weeks of searching on what to write.
Many thanks! My draft looks great, I feel less stressed and more prepared, and I’m more encouraged that Nursing school is achievable!
Absolutely brilliant, you're really great with breaking down information to help us understand. You're a star!!! ☺️💕💕💕
was feeling so overwhelmed, but now i have a solid idea of where to take my essay. thank you so much!
Best personal statement video I've seen so far - so helpful and insightful, thank you!
I'm an adult student applying to university this year and this was perfect guidance thank you! I am doing A Levels online and don't have any support for writing personal statements so thank you so much this has been immensely helpful.
Thank you so much Dr. Yonis! My stress level went down immediately. You made this so much more obtainable and understandable 😊
This video left me speechless! It's very short, rich, understandable and very helpful.... God bless.
this video is amazing! Clear and concise, focused on getting the statement written. Thank you.
I have 4 days to pick a uni and write a personal statement, wish me luck!!!!
Omg I'm in the same position as you😂
Good luck xx
Welp 1 day LOL
DINO DOOMAKER me tooo😭😂😂😂
ahh same
@@charlieianthe9072 we in this together XDD
This was extremely helpful, although I have a degree I never made a personal statement and now with your guidance. I feel much more confident writing one and supporting my son in his personal statement. Thank you for making this so simple, clear and informative.
I'm applying during my gap year and this made life so much easier for me :)
I’ve had significant time off school due to personal life and bullying. I had no help from my teachers at all. And going into year 13 in September. I also have an anxiety disorder so you can only imagine the anxiety right now. You honestly have no idea about the immense help of this. Thank you so much. Hope you well.
can anyone help me, due to my significant time off school should I mention this in my personal statement????? perhaps my introduction.
@@RupiDoe don’t mention this AT ALL. This will make you look like a liability and the person reading your statement won’t think you’ll be able to cope with the pressures of the university. You have to come across as confident, all the things you’ve done which can help you during your course at university. If you haven’t done anything due to being off school then do stuff NOW. Go go go
@@ebiz2085 complete bullshit. universities are far more interested in your academic potential than in your character traits. plus, universities and ucas write EVERYWHERE that you should mention extenuating circumstances that hindered you to fulfill your full potential. i'd say mentioning your time off at school etc. would actually rather increase your chances of admission than diminish them.
This is the most helpful personal statement video I have ever found! Thank you Dr Yonis!
i was late to starting my personal statement and had no idea what to even write for it. now i do. thank u so much :)
Oh my goodness thank you so much. This writing process has been so stressful. You’ve cleared up so much for me.
Thank you so much! Got my first draft done and it’s definitely not as daunting with your help.
This was actually very helpful and probably the only video that actually was able to make me write up a nice structured example :)
this was incredibly helpful! i’m a lot more confident with my progress now thank you !
Oh thank you Soo much! I didn't know what experience I have done and clicked the link and so much came to me!
I have been putting off writing a personal statement, but following this got me over that weird writing hump. Thank you so much!!
Well, I know you might get these kind of comments a lot, especially on this video, but I was literally goofing around and didn't how to start my statement, while having almost 5 SOPs to write; 4 for Master degrees and one for a Phd. I watched several videos and read many instructions and articles but only your video got me to actually start writing effectively. Your points and tips are also invaluable. I sincerely appreciate you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us. Thank you very much!
Thank you for this video put together on how to write a personal University statement. It indeed gave me clue of what I needed to write about. God bless you. Keep on the good work.
Amazing I can’t believe I just wrote this thing thanks to you Simple and Straight forward
