How to write a personal statement in 5 steps featuring extracts from my two personal statements accepted to Cambridge and Imperial College London. I was accepted to study Aeronautical Engineering at Imperial in 2018 as well as subsequently Architecture at the University of Cambridge in 2020 (after realising I had chosen to study the wrong subject and consequently taking a leap of faith to withdraw and switch to the course where my heart really lies!). • If you are applying to university - comment which one and which course below! Feel free to ask me questions, I will do my very best to reply to you all personally. • If you are applying for Architecture or for Cambridge - look out for my videos about my architecture portfolio and how I prepared for my interview at Cambridge respectively. • The five steps are as follows: • 1. Write down why you want to study your subject in one sentence • 2. Decide a structure and write down a plan outlining the contents of each paragraph. I suggest the following general areas but advise you check with subject teachers if you need anything specific for your particular subject: • -Introduction • -Evidence of Interest (the majority of the statement) • -Wider Life • -Conclusion • 3. List of stuff: write down all your achievements over the years and categorise them, working out which things correlate to which paragraphs in your statement • 4. Start drafting: using the plan you have now created from steps 1-3, start turning those bullet-pointed achievements into prose. Focus on getting completed, coherent drafts asap then fine tune them later. I use the analogy of sculpting a statue from a block of stone - start with the rough shape and get into details later. • 5. George Orwell's rules for writing - these are a final check to help you keep your writing concise. • Intro - (0:00) • Important info - (0:20) • 1. Main theme - (0:27) • 2. Structure - (1:34) • 3.
