    Another word for...?
    Just Working on my PS at the moment, but can't seem to find another word for passionate, I have seemed to have over used it , I need it in the context of 'it involves studying sciences, which I am passionate about' any help please?

    Stimulated, amorous?

    When does your PS have to be written by, bit early to be starting that.

    I thought you're not supposed to use the word 'passionate' at all? I spoke to my careers advisor about personal statements and applications and they told me never to use passionate along with 2 other words (which I forgot) since they are so common on other peoples' applications.

    I would say something like "which I am really enthusiastic about/motivated to learn about". But I don't know if both of these are the mentioned "common" words in the above post

    'it involves studying sciences, which interests me greatly due to my inquisitive and analytical nature.' Or something.

    Thanks! I really should speak to someone, I will probably cut it out as I've read a few examples and it is used quite a lot
