Following on from Ryan’s talk yesterday, he has kindly sent me the following links. I hope that there is something useful here for you.
Here are a couple of links I think I might be useful. http://blog.spc.ox.ac.uk/2013/ucas-forms-the-mysteries-of-the-personal-statement/ This is a brief summary by one of my tutors of what they look for in a personal statement. If you go back a link there’s a whole list of blog posts of different things on admissions and student experiences which should be useful. https://www.youtube.com/user/SPCOxford/videos is also a huge collection of useful videos.
Mr Kydd.
