I want to apply to Oxbridge for English and I'd like someone to maybe have a read of my personal statement for some advice? :smile:

Hi! I want to apply to Oxford for Psychology and I’d be happy to read your personal statement & give feedback. I haven’t finished my own personal statement yet but I attended a personal statement webinar yesterday so I have an idea of what to do / not to do.

Really kind of you to offer but I must advice OP against taking up your offer. While I'm reasonably confident you are genuinely trying to be helpful, you should only give your personal statement to trusted people, not internet strangers. The consequences for your university application if somebody has copied your personal statement can be disastrous.

I am an Oxford graduate and would gladly take a look for you!
Just a word of advice I’d only recommend sharing your PS with students who are already studying at Oxbridge/have already graduated from there (there’s always the risk that a fellow current applicant could—even unintentionally—plagiarise your writing).

Let me know if you’d like any help!
Luke
