    Depends what course you#re doing but certainly the biosciences etc have gone almost dead at the moment. I guess its similar across the board.

    no harm in trying anyway!

    post away, make sure you put the rest of your statement up there too so we can see how it fits in/maybe improve bits of that too....

    You've already had over 3 pages of help, and have drastically changed your PS each time!

    Since it's only your conclusion it's alright, but please remember that when you read through it it had better flow well with everything else since we won't be looking at it anymore.

    My ending concludes why im a suitable candidate, and how i would be able to be a successful <insert job here (that is related to the course you studied)>

    Talking about PS, how long does it usually take for someone to help you with you PS in the ps helping forum, because i waited for a week now, im not sure if its long or short during this period of time =s.

    That sounds to be alright really as right now there are a number of PS helpers who are at university now with other commitments. Since the Oxbridge deadline has now lapsed there should be some one attending toy your statement soon enough - what course are you doing?
