how to answer Q2 new personal statement (interested in pharmacy btw)

hii. im a year 12 student interested in studying pharmacy in uni. for Q2 of the new personal statement (How have your qualifications and studies helped you to prepare for this course?). points my teacher said to include are how has your academic journey equipped you with the skills needed to excel in your chosen course? Highlight academic achievements that are relevant to the course. How have specific subjects or projects prepared you for the next step in you education? for these points i have literally nothing to say. ive been soo focused on my studies, i didnt spend time in builiding my personal statement. im going to use my summer to find opportunites to include in my personal statement. can you give examples of academic achievements thats relevant to pharmacy that i can somehow do this summer. please help ur girl out. IM STRESSINGG!! i cared too much abt my a levels, i forgot building your personal statement is as important. sorry if this is alot. I know I’ve still got time to build something great, so I’m ready to make the most of this summer 💪✨ Any advice would honestly mean a lot thank you in advance! 💛😇

Those are the ucas guides for pharmacy which are definitely worth a read. Also look at some examples to see what people generally write about their studies in past personal statements available online.
