Mathematics and Statistics Personal Statement
Hi, everyone this is my first question on this website. I will be predicted A*A*A*A for universities but I am worried about my personal statement. I will be applying for Mathematics and Statistics / Statistics but I have no awards to put on my personal statement. I am aiming for UCL, LSE and Warwick but I was wondering if this was a dealbreaker on my personal statement or not.
Your PS should be about your academic interests and motivation to study your course. It’s not a list of awards - those would go in your reference.
Useful short film here about writing a Personal Statement - good written guide mentioned at the end with examples of good/bad statements - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF5-vnhZRx8
