    Can I just say this is by far the most compelling and informative personal statement video I've watched! You managed to cover so many useful points I hadn't even considered before watching this video, and it just show happens that I am looking at business and management related degrees so this was absolutely perfect for me! Before this I felt so under qualified, overwhelmed and unprepared about writing my personal statement but you've dropped so many gems I feel so confident to write and submit mine. Thank you! :) Xx

    Writing Personal Statement
    1. Use a story structure to help your personal statement interlink & come to a conclusion at the end
    2. Show them you are fitted to this degree
    3. Use fancy words
    4. Make it clear that you only want this degree
    5. Mention some key skills relevant to your degree
    6. Link experiences back to your degree
    7. Read some books to show that you really want to study this
    8. State if you have studied this degree before
    9. Link book topics
    10. If you apply for 2 degrees talk about both
    11. Do some online courses related to this degree again showing you spend a lot of time studying and learning more
    12. Link back what you’ve learnt and how it’s impacted you to become a better at your degree and how it’s given you more insight/drive to learn even more
    13. Add your own opinions on what you’ve read
    14. Show them how and why you’re passionate about the subject, without using the word passionate
    15. Share an academic opportunity if you’ve had one (use star method)
    16. Leadership and time management are very important skills you need
    17. Start a club related to your degree, or join one and ask to be an organizer
    18. Growth mindset
    19. Sprinkle in any key terms that are relevant
    20. Finish with a powerful last sentence

    Great video, sub!
    I just had a question. You mention 'Economics and Management' at LSE though currently the LSE course list only shows a 'Management' degree on their website. Is there a different method of applying for a J.H. or have the subjects at LSE changed now?
    Thanks!

    Hi, thanks for your insight!
    Regarding the short-online coursed that you mentioned, I am currently doing one on Future Learn, but, the thing is that right now I can not afford to pay for the certification, in this case, and considering that it is a specific and related course with my degree,
    is it ok if I mention that I did this specific course as you did even though I do have not the certificate?
