Hi everyone,
Here is my own personal statement from a few years back. It's not bad but I definitely think there are areas for improvement compared to the personal statements I advise on today!
Hope this is helpful!
Info:
I've worked in admissions for nearly 10 years and founded a private 6th-form college in 2018. Having sent all our students off to RG/top 10 unis, I want to share all the tips you need to achieve the best results!
Everyone should have access to the same information and I am always happy to answer any questions/take video requests.
I hope this is useful to some of you out there!
SJ - E&M Oxford
This was a really helpful video. Thanks so much.
thank god you told me that the prisoner's dilemma was cliché. very useful video
thank you for all the sharing❤❤ very helpful have a nice day！
Hi. I'm almost going to send off my application and only a few slight adjustments to be made in my personal statement. There is an essay, 'I, pencil' that I mentioned in the statement but I only used 2 lines for it. Should I be worried that I am listing things?
Do you think you’ll do a video on like game theory puzzles to help with interviews maybe? And wow you took five alevels!
Absolutely great video!
Could I suggest videos where you could show how to structure and build up engaging paragraphs for an E&M personal statement.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi, I was really interested in this course but I'm not sure exactly what it entails. Is there a particular website that explains e&m as when looking at specific uni websites they don't include it. Thanks!
economics.web.ox.ac.uk/sites/default/files/economics/documents/media/em_course_handbook_2020-21_ew_access_checked.pdf
There is some detailed info in the link above about the course at oxford.
However, the courses at each university are slightly different in focus, so some will study concepts more applicable to real-world business and others a bit more theoretical.
www.kcl.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/courses/economics-and-management-bsc
This course at KCL has a really extensive list of the modules you can choose from in 2nd/3rd year which should give you a decent idea of what to expect.
Let me know if you have any specific questions and I will answer them if I can!
Do you need to include management on your PS if you are applying only to Oxford E&M, and pure econ at eg LSE? Can I make my PS pure econ? Would it jeopardise Oxford application?
Unfortunately yes, you would have to include at least some management in the PS if applying for Oxford. Although, if you got a truly outstanding TSA score/excellent GCSE grades you could probably get away with it. Also, you only have to choose 2 management courses out of a possible 8 at uni, so it could just be you are more interested in economics right now.
I would probably advise you have a look at the management topics which have more overlap with economics if you are planning to go this route! Hope that helps :)

what where you predicted?
Which college did you study at?
Hi, it was Keble college!
where did you receive offers from? PS this is a really good ps
It was a while ago but Oxford for e&m then just pure economics at LSE, Durham, Warwick, Edinburgh. Hope this was helpful!
