It was imformative and super helpful to my understanding of a good PS, thank you so much!! Is there a transcript of your personal statement? (my very first comment on RUclips loll)
hiii! can i ask, what conditions did the offer from KCL entail? i take the IB as well and it would be nice to know what they expect from their prospective students :))
I can make a video about it :) I would recommend looking for books related to the field(s) you might be most interested in like international law, comparative law, business law, etc.
maybe if your school has an econ/business club, or an internship in something related to economics. Even things that are related to econ skill-wise like math club could work!
hi Fernanda! I don't offer personal statement review/editing services, but there are many people who do! I would also suggest sending it to people you know who can advise you (eg faculty/peers/parents, etc)
some schools may be more selective about gcse grades than others. If you are near the cutoff for grades or test scores they might look at gcse scores relative to other applicants (happened to me for Oxford and since I didn't have any I was rejected).
Hii, I repeated year 12 because I failed chemistry in the first year which made me realise medicine is not the career path for me . I’m currently going into year 13 with psychology, philosophy and french . In my personal statement should I mention that I repeated year 12 with different subjects ? Because I don’t think a lot of unis would be happy to hear it and they would be reluctant to give me a position in unis like UCL OR QUEEN MARY OR KINGS . What is your advice ? Because on the contrary it could show how I learn from my failures and I come back . But again I wouldn’t get any unconditional offers by saying I failed . Can you help me pls I want to study psychology
hi! I'm not a counselor, so I'm not sure how to best advise you. I would recommend talking to a counselor at your school and also reaching out to admissions counselors at your prospective unis to see what they think. Since unis will receive your school records, I don't think you need to emphasize the change of subjects. I would try to focus on your current subjects and how they have contributed to your knowledge and interest in psychology.
from my experience, you don't need to submit a CV with your applications! a CV and personal statement are completely different, but if there's enough interest I can make a video about how to write one!
the best activities are the ones you are interested in! If you're looking for things related to management, some sort of business or econ club or something related to entrepreneurship could be relevant :)
Sophielogy I checked it and it said you need a level bio or chem but I do applied science and a level psychology ( they accept applied science) but idk about psychology coz it links with the degree somehow
anything related to the subjects, as well as those that you are interested in! Could be things like business/econ/entrepreneurship club, work experience, consulting clubs/competitions, etc.
this is probably the most helpful video i've watched, thanks

What books did you read for law? What would you recommend?
I can make a video about it :) I would recommend looking for books related to the field(s) you might be most interested in like international law, comparative law, business law, etc.

I'm looking to do economics at LSE, what are some extra curricular activities that would contribute towards this?
maybe if your school has an econ/business club, or an internship in something related to economics. Even things that are related to econ skill-wise like math club could work!
@@sophielogy thankyou so much!!
Heyyy your video helped me A LOT! I’m applying to Oxford grad (LL.M) in a few weeks!!!! Would you mind reading my personal statement?😩
hi Fernanda! I don't offer personal statement review/editing services, but there are many people who do! I would also suggest sending it to people you know who can advise you (eg faculty/peers/parents, etc)
Does your gcse result affect your chances into getting admitted? Say you get 5 b’s 5’as 1 a* but at a level you get 3 a*
some schools may be more selective about gcse grades than others. If you are near the cutoff for grades or test scores they might look at gcse scores relative to other applicants (happened to me for Oxford and since I didn't have any I was rejected).
Can you post your essay on a google doc?

Hello Sophie, do you mind reading my SOP if I send it over?
Is it possible to get into biomedical science with psychology and applied science?
depends on the requirement for the particular course. I would check the online prospectus
Sophielogy I checked it and it said you need a level bio or chem but I do applied science and a level psychology ( they accept applied science) but idk about psychology coz it links with the degree somehow
@@zzit4609 in that case, I would check with a counselor or email the uni
