    this was so helpful!! my gosh!! i felt so stressed because of all the other videos I have watched but getting the perspective from a fellow american, who didn't apply to oxbridge, AND wrote about history, it has really helped get my head in the game :^^))

    I watched your video twice to get a rough idea how to write an excellent personal statement, not to plagiarise. To be honest, I am totally lost on how to write a personal statement to pursue a double degree in History & Modern Languages. I have drafted a personal statement and it has exceeded the maximum 4000 characters. For the History parts, I typed mostly about what I know/read about various topics as well as the books I have read, hence, exceeding 4000 characters. Currently doing my research in order to write better as the deadline is fast approaching. I would like you advice on how to write an excellent personal statement like yours, what should I type & how to write the ending. Are you able to help me out here, hope to get a reply from you.

    • @nolaamak
      @nolaamak  3 года назад +1

      Hi! Since you're over the character limit I would suggest focusing on only a couple of texts and go into depth on those topics. Remember to relate everything in your personal statement back to your degree and maybe this approach will help you cut out some words. Good luck!
