Importance of ps in maths?

So I’m starting to plan my ps and I want to apply for maths at Edinburgh, Glasgow, Sheffield, rhul and qmul. I’m panicking about my ps because well I just don’t think it’s gonna be that good and I have read around maths and stuff, particularly around complex plane, 4d etc. my predicteds are A*A*A (maths, fm and physics) so how important is my ps? Is it a make or break or is it not that important for maths.. I’m also not taking any extra admissions tests
Well you need to think from the uni's perspective. They need to make sure you are suited to the course. You've got the grades so I guess you can tell them about your interest and motivation.

Hello,

It's great to hear you're interested in applying for Mathematics at Royal Holloway.

Your personal statement forms an important part of your application to study at university. We have advice on what to include (and not include) on our website under the 'Hints and tips' drop-down menu, as well as a video which talks you through personal statements. The most important this is to make sure your statement is personal to you, not just general information about your chosen subject.

We hope this helps - good luck!

Best wishes,
Royal Holloway, University of London
