** VIDEO SUMMARY ** SECTION 1 - 'Start with one reason' - why do you want to study this subject? create an interesting intro SECTION 2 - 'Pick two ideas from books' - create two sentences about points you read in books and develop them to show your interest and further reading SECTION 3 - 'Going beyond the books' - summarise your work experience, courses, lectures or tv shows (something deeper than literature) SECTION 4 - 'High school subjects' - pick 1-2 of your school subjects and describe how they taught you skills that will prepare you for your uni course SECTION 5 - 'Extra curricular achievements' - talk about what skills it gave you and link it to your uni subjects - hobbies such as musical talents or sports --> Many say not to use AI such as Chat-GPT to write their essays, but if you provide it with data personalised to you and your own subjects, achievements and books you've read, it can help provide you with a structure! But of course, don't write your statement with AI...

[@bugonthemoon]

The amount of time I have watched this video. THANK U THANK U THANK U. Wishing you the best

[@ameliemichiels3787]

I am really so confused right now, becasue I've already watched so many personal statement video and literally every video says different things about how your personal statement should be and what should be included and what not... and I am just stressing out righ now cause i dont know which approach to take !

[@Joy-kf1nn]

Hey, I hope you actually get to read this so you know you’re not alone, I feel like we’re all bound to feel like this at the stage of personal statements. I have no idea what exactly you’re feeling but in my opinion, you’re gonna do just fine, no matter how difficult it feels or looks, you got this!! The few things I can tell you based off my own research is to write the actual format provided by UCAS to understand what the baseline is, then try to watch videos like these and get an idea of how to reword some things here and there. Don’t shy away from your careers teacher (if you have one) and also don’t be scared to get advice from friends who’ve graduated and how they did theirs, also AI if you’re having trouble with trying to find out how to word certain things and shorted long statements. Remember, you’ll never miss out on what’s meant for you, and always remember to do your best!!!

[@amik885]

Thank you so much - this was so helpful.

Hello kwok, a lil fan of yours from Hong Kong! I’m inspired by you around a year ago and since then aspired to be an oxford law student too! Would you please make a video on LNAT as well? I would be really grateful to know more about what is happening on the day of the test beforehand since LNAT is really stressful to me(and some of my friends)!
