Diagnostic Radiography - personal statement

I'm currently trying to form a personal statement, I do chemistry, history and maths A-Levels and i'm having a hard time linking chemistry to radiography.

Does anyone have any tips?

Hi, linking subjects to a course is a waste of characters, they can already see what subjects you are doing so there's no point in mentioning it, I got an offer for radiography and didn't mention what subjects I did, just work experience and extra curriculars

Thanks for replying, did you any further reading about it? And if so what books or articles?

You don't need to talk about how your A levels relate to your degree choice. Focus your statement on your understanding of the job (your shadowing experience) and then tie your public-facing work/volunteering experience in with the NHS values and 6 Cs of care. Have a look at the advice on the following thread for vocational personal statements:
