How can you write an amazing UCAS Personal Statement. This book is full of tips, tricks and structured tasks to work through. The section called WRITING will get you a solid first draft. REDRAFTING is a step-by-step guide to turning good ideas into fantastic finished sentences. The CASE STUDIES deal with some common problems, but are also full of good advice for anyone writing a PS. The main aim of this book is to help you produce a personal, powerful PS, and the key to that is expressing passion for the subject you want to study at university.
You’ll soon find out, though, that the point of writing a PS is not ending up with a polished piece of writing. The really useful thing is what you learn during the writing process. Your PS is an opportunity, not a chore, and the other aim of this book is to let you in on techniques that will be of enormous use to you throughout your life – when applying for other courses, jobs, promotions, but also when just thinking about where you are and what you want to do next.
