Imeprial College Summer school year 10

Can someone read and see my errors for the application I did for Imperial college summer school for year 10. I got rejected and I know it was because of my application since its the first ever application I did. Someone message me so I can send you a copy my application and help me spot some mistake

They did. The house income was part of the list to tick and we were told that if we could put if we are first generation to go uni in our personal statement. However, i didnt mention it since both of my parents were uni grads( but from a third world country, so the education they had werent really as high nor competative compared to here) and i felt like it will decrease my chances from getting in

Yeah. Don't get your hopes up too much, but you'll just have to wait and see.

I got in for this year so if you still want someone to review your personal statement I wouldn’t mind.

Hi, I know this was a few years ago. I am applying and just wanted to know what your predicted grades were and what you wrote in the statement... if you remember.
