Product Description
The personal statement helps convince university admissions officers that an applicant should be accepted before hundreds or even thousands of others: it is a life-shaping document - a letter, job application, CV and interview all in one.
Even the very best students - not to mention teachers and parents - find this task difficult and hugely time-consuming.
This book has helped tens of thousands of students achieve their dream and gain a place on their first choice university course. Its step-by-step method leads to personal statements of the very highest quality.
The final pages of the book include a range of successful statements: all led to students receiving offers from their first choice universities.
