I know someone that went to a Physics interview at Oxbridge and in his personal statement he quoted a book that he didn't read, in the interview the interviewer asked about the book he mentioned in his personal statement... He was being interviewed by the author of the book and I can tell you that it only went downhill from there
I love how Jack and Jade are so chill about talking about Oxford. My friend got into her dream uni while another friend of ours got rejected by the same uni and that kinda ruined their friendship for some reason... You all are such an inspiration and i love how you are hyping each other up😂😂
Ahhhh I think the more you come to accept it, the less it ends up mattering! We're both very happy with what ended up happening, so we have to embrace that!
Greatest 4 youtubers ever!!! Ibz: Phsycology perspective... Sociology perspective... Media link perspective... POWER KNOWLEDGE Jade: Woahhh Loved this vid Jack!
I've never actually heard that tip of linking everything to your degree and also the ratios of academia to extra curricular, also I'm commenting loads on this video but honestly this is so helpful so thank you all of you 🙏
I LOVE THIS. There's so much brain power in one room it's so fenominal to watch you guys bounce off of eachother and be so collectively excited about sharing this with us. Which shows how passionate you all are for Academics. Thank you for this Iconic Collab I love you all ♥️
It's really interesting to see how personal statement is different depending on what your applying for. I'm applying for midwifery and it's so important to show commitment through work experience.
Haha I remember the Lolita story from your Oxford video... I already knew that it was gonna be that one as soon as you said horror story whilst simultaneously talking about books 😂
WHO MADE THE DECISION TO ALL UPLOAD AT 10AM I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START COULDN'T YOU HAVE STAGGERED THE TIMES I LITERALLY PANICKED WHEN ALL THE NOTIFICATIONS CAME THROUGH AHHHH
I really needed this, I don’t know where to start and I’m currently reading a few books about the subject I’d like to study, but I didn’t really know what else to put in. Thank you so much, this video is definitely a life saver!
I am literally having the best day of my life, It is my 16th birthday, and you, Jade, Eve and Ibz have all uploaded! I mean what better could have happened? You should film more often together, this videos are the best!
To those upset about not having 13 drafts of their personal statement, I can tell you from experience that sometimes the first draft is good enough! I typed my personal statement a few hours before the deadline and was accepted to a very decent university!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have just started my Personal Statement and I needed some proper help with where to go next (i.e. structure, chopping, weightings), so thanks for this. You guys are an inspiration!
Whoa I'm from the Netherlands and I'm really glad we don't have personal statements here :p It looks so hard! Here you just need to pass your final exams (VWO level, which I thing is comparable to A-level) and if you have the right profile (subjects) you can start at any uni. Only a few studies (like medicine) have a selection!
i'll be applying through UCAS this cycle and was literally JUST working on my first draft for my personal statement so thank you all for this 😭😭 this video couldn't have come at a better time :')
I just went to this awful personal statement workshop and honestly this was so much more helpful! Thanks to everyone in this video omg. Littest collab ever!
I’ve been working on my personal statement the past few weeks and I’ve got to have it finished and handed in to my teachers by October half term. This video is so helpful and I’ll definitely take these points on board (I’m applying for primary education at several uni’s)
I'm literally working on my second personal statement draft, so this couldn't have come at a better time. I'm going for English at Oxford, and the main thread in my PS is my connection to the Irish oral storytelling tradition as a diplomat's daughter. EDIT: Oh my goodness the bit about using language differently sounds like the conclusion of one of my IB English Lang/Lit essays. 😂😂
I literally just wrote about epq and critical thinking the timing aha! My personal statement has to be in soon as an early applicant and I feel so much better now because I actually feel like I’ve written about the right things! Also this collab is incredible, it’s made my day :))
I just remembered that video of yours 'If Personal Statements were honest' and I mean after watching this one now it really is so similar to the personal statements I had to write this summer. You might remember me being from Germany, I applied to big companies like Adidas, BMW or Audi for a dual study program (going to uni while getting paid to be an intern there every 3 months). I really wouldn't have thought that it is that similar! Btw we won everything today yayyy!!!
I've submitted mine but my guidance counselor just says omg yes that's good yes yes. I'm an international student and I asked whether I could ask my english teacher. She said no because he is way too busy and inexperienced with personal statements. I honestly am not the most satisfied with my PS but hey it is what it is. Thank you for this video!! It was very fun!
My face when Eve said she had 13 drafts of her personal statement :/ I'm on my second draft and my uni counselor says I only have a few improvements to make... I suppose I should ask a few more opinions... (At least I'm not applying for Oxbridge, although Durham, St. Andrews, Warwick, Exeter and Newcastle aren't exactly easy to get into.)
Definitely get as many opinions as you can and keep redrafting! I had a lot of drafts too, but you might've just had a better technique / structure first time!
I made about 8, about 5 members of staff checked it and none of them changed much. My siblings and geography teacher were so helpful (thats the degree im doing) x
this is gonna sound absolutely MAD because i literally already am at uni but this lowkey makes me want to apply again you guys are too inspiring send help
This couldn't come at a better time for me as I am currently applying for English at Oxford! Attempting to have the running theme of feminism, linking it to the 'times up' and 'me too' movement through all my noveks!! x
So helpful. I’ve started writing a list of transferable skills and words that I use to describe myself, and have made a list of relevant qualifications, i have written my why down, I’m just terrible at selling myself. I have level three qualifications but I don’t have A-levels, so they’re vocational qualifications that are very subject specific and there is nothing explaining tarring points and equating that to what diplomas are worth on most uni websites.
Great video as always Jack! . The getting ready for uni video was brilliant and im glad I took fancy dress, I have photos I dont remember being taken and presume I had fun on the nights I cant remember of this week. 😂
I'm gonna be straight up, this video didn't help me at all to prepare my personal statement because they were mostly just screaming or talking over each other ahaha
Perfect timing as I have been trying to finish up my personal statement for the past month. I was wondering how I should approach the word limit. I am about a hundred words away from the limit but not sure I have that much left to say, but I don't want to turn in a personal statement that is too short and looks like I am not that motivated or something.
Ever since I was a fetus I've had a passion for Biology.
😂😂😂😂😂 mate
From the dawn of time I've had a passion for biology.
i will use this as my starting paragraph
😂😂
I know someone that went to a Physics interview at Oxbridge and in his personal statement he quoted a book that he didn't read, in the interview the interviewer asked about the book he mentioned in his personal statement... He was being interviewed by the author of the book and I can tell you that it only went downhill from there
I can't tell you how much I am laughing right now ahahhahaha
i-
epic bruh moment!!!
the fattest L imagine fumbling for an answer and the authors staring into ur eyes
Oh my god I am cringing 😬😂
Oxford, Imperial, Durham, Edinburgh and Southampton ain't ready for my personal statement after this
THATS WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR
Fiona
Hey how's it going?did u get in?
Fiona where are you going?? x
Fiona where are youuuu??
I'm guessing she got into Harvard
THE NO-BEEF INFORMATIVE BRILLIANCE!! 👏
we love a vegetarian option
Jack Edwards lol you guys are hilarious 😂
What uni in Bristol is it the uwe or uob
@@ellouisebrogan3615, I think it is uob as that is where you can study biology.
UnJaded Jade you Oxford reject!!
The amount of A*s in that room (at A level)!!!!
Dylan 11 ibz is a fraud only got A*A*A
You mean A*ssholes ?
Paulo Constantino Awh someone is bitter xxx
Honestly this is the most iconic collab EVER
i'm still lowkey fanboying
omg the fact that you replied makes it more ICONICCCC
ahhhhhhh so excited to watch these back!
the SQUADratic FOURmula collab of dreams eh
I like both Eve Bennett and Eve Cornwell
I love how Jack and Jade are so chill about talking about Oxford. My friend got into her dream uni while another friend of ours got rejected by the same uni and that kinda ruined their friendship for some reason...
You all are such an inspiration and i love how you are hyping each other up😂😂
Ahhhh I think the more you come to accept it, the less it ends up mattering! We're both very happy with what ended up happening, so we have to embrace that!
That's because friendship is based on Equality. You cannot be friends with someone who you perceive is above or below you.
*Hears Ibz Mo opening line to his personal statement.*
Me: ... 😮
can someone tell me what he wrote?
@@tayyebafaisal296 "I am the product of both the destructive and revitalising elements that post-modern society offers."
Greatest 4 youtubers ever!!!
Ibz: Phsycology perspective... Sociology perspective... Media link perspective... POWER KNOWLEDGE
Jade: Woahhh
Loved this vid Jack!
Ibz is INCREDIBLE
Jack Edwards Truly!!!
P
Who else feels dumb listening to these people
me lol. i don’t even know what i’m doing
mine was like just a diary compared to theirs
the Cambridge guy is a fkn genius bruv
I've never actually heard that tip of linking everything to your degree and also the ratios of academia to extra curricular, also I'm commenting loads on this video but honestly this is so helpful so thank you all of you 🙏
Honestly that SAVED my personal statement
I’m quaking everything is happening at once OMG
i'm watching them all back now and all i can do is apologise for throwing all three at you all at once hahaha
Yesh for an international viewer like me...it's kinda hard to follow...but anyway it's fun to watch tho
Minerva left the chat
lmfaoooo
@@joshy90876 epic fail
I finished my personal statement back in July 😂😂 Oxford, Bristol, Durham, Nottingham and Birmingham aren't ready.
jheeeeeezzzzzzz that is organisation
What course are you applying to babes?
Cambridge, Durham, Bristol, Nottingham, Birmingham aren't ready for me too. 💪🏽
I’m doing law at Nottingham, rejected my Bristol And Durham offer to firm Nottingham, 100% no regrets.
ARMYYY💜💜
I LOVE THIS.
There's so much brain power in one room it's so fenominal to watch you guys bounce off of eachother and be so collectively excited about sharing this with us. Which shows how passionate you all are for Academics.
Thank you for this Iconic Collab
I love you all ♥️
8:45 With that insight into Ibz’s personal statement, there was no way Cambridge could turn him down👏🏾
It's really interesting to see how personal statement is different depending on what your applying for. I'm applying for midwifery and it's so important to show commitment through work experience.
Yessss for sure! Sorry we couldn’t cater more towards other courses!
When your having a rubbish day and your 4 favourite youtubers are all together in 4 videos ❤️ mood gone from 0-100
Wow I'm already over an hour into these collabs and I'm living for them
now THAT is dedication... THANK YOU
I'M GOING TO CRY YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I NEEDED THIS. Honestly you're all legends thank you SO much ❤❤❤
I hope it's useful for you!!!
I adore all of you so much. I got three 9s and five 8s in my GCSEs and I couldn’t have done it without you x
This is actually the happiest I’ve been in ages 😂 three collab videos? Holy shit
MATE I'M BUZZING!!!!
Haha I remember the Lolita story from your Oxford video... I already knew that it was gonna be that one as soon as you said horror story whilst simultaneously talking about books 😂
hahahahah you know me too well
You four came down like ethereal heavenly angels and answered all my prayers.🙏🙏👏🙌
hahahaha you're SO welcome - i hope it helps :)
WHO MADE THE DECISION TO ALL UPLOAD AT 10AM I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START COULDN'T YOU HAVE STAGGERED THE TIMES I LITERALLY PANICKED WHEN ALL THE NOTIFICATIONS CAME THROUGH AHHHH
yes same
hahahahaha maybe that would've been a better idea actually.... guess we'll just have to film together AGAIN to learn from our mistakes
AHAHAH YESSS
Jack Edwards
Ahhhhh yes please seeing you all together is so cool 🙏🙏😂😂
yes PLEASE
This is actually a LEGENDARY video for all the guys who watched all 4 for revision and things. Literally school version avengers
The coordination with the uploads is iconic
wouldn't be studytube without that organisation would it?
This Jack Edward's guy is Hella attractive, he can talk to me all day and I will not understand anything but I still will relentlessly drool.
hahahahahaahahah everyone has experienced it at one point pal :)
Boombaoppaya _ fr thoooo
Get someone who looks at you the same way Jack looks at Ibz
From an American who has no one around them irl giving advice on the personal statement, thanks this was so helpful!
Lmaooo Ibz 'sometimes you have to kill your babies' I would love it if a teacher said that to me
very very good advise
i'm crying my beginning of the year is saved with these four
I really needed this, I don’t know where to start and I’m currently reading a few books about the subject I’d like to study, but I didn’t really know what else to put in. Thank you so much, this video is definitely a life saver!
Try some podcasts, articles, videos etc! Every single one is just as useful as books :)
Jack Edwards thank you for your advice, I’ll follow it!
there is so much intelligence in that room hahah i could never
I am literally having the best day of my life, It is my 16th birthday, and you, Jade, Eve and Ibz have all uploaded! I mean what better could have happened?
You should film more often together, this videos are the best!
HAPPY BIRTHDAAAAAYYYY!!!! Hope you have the best day ever ❤️
@@jack_edwards Thank you so much Jack😊
I love this video. I've been looking for a personal statement video and one made by all of you guys is gold.
I hope it's useful!
I genuinely needed this, my school wants my personal statement in by this Monday! V helpful thanks
WOOOOOAAAAAH they are ON IT
i hope this helps!!!
Ahhh the best moment when all 4 videos go up at once, can’t decide which to watch first!! ☺️✨
hahahaha yeah we didn't quite think that one through
you guys need to let one finish speaking before another jumps over....seriously am having trouble keeping up
although your tips are bomb!!
This was surprisingly fun yet throughly helpful. Other Youtbers should follow your style. Adding friends really enhanced the energy of it.
Omg the infinity war reference had me dead😂😂 ly all xx
the most ambitious crossover of ALL TIME
Ahah definitely ❤️
who ever thought that i had needed this collab in my life
Hi jack I'm literally writing my personal statement thanks xx 😂💕
waheeeey perfect timing then! GOOD LUCK! it'll be worth all the stress and hassle eventually I promise!!
Jack Edwards thanks x
Same here haha
To those upset about not having 13 drafts of their personal statement, I can tell you from experience that sometimes the first draft is good enough! I typed my personal statement a few hours before the deadline and was accepted to a very decent university!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have just started my Personal Statement and I needed some proper help with where to go next (i.e. structure, chopping, weightings), so thanks for this. You guys are an inspiration!
"I lovit when people start with a quote."
Anybody with a bit a sense won't put a quote in their statement.
SHIT SHIT SHIT. I put a quote at the end of mine. Oh balls, why did no one tell me that wasn't good!!!
well but these guys did put quotes in their personal statement and they got into the best unis
he didn’t say “i love it” he said “a lot of people start”
My personal statement has to be finished next week, this is such a helpful video (and just in time).
Ahhh good timing then! I hope it helps with some last minute amendments :)
Whoa I'm from the Netherlands and I'm really glad we don't have personal statements here :p It looks so hard! Here you just need to pass your final exams (VWO level, which I thing is comparable to A-level) and if you have the right profile (subjects) you can start at any uni.

I have been waiting for this collab for my ENTIRE LIFE
fav youtubers in one video😁 !!! had to decide which one to watch first but you uploaded first by literally 10 seconds😂
waheeeey thanks for watching!!! (ps the other three are literally my fav youtubers so i'm still fanboying a lil bit)
My university didn’t even require a personal statement yet here I am watching this video
Can’t even explain how helpful this was! Currently finishing mine up as college deadline is this week!
Ah that’s so great to hear! Thank you for watching :)
very nice crossover, Jack;) great idea for a video. It will definitely help many.
Pavel
i'll be applying through UCAS this cycle and was literally JUST working on my first draft for my personal statement so thank you all for this 😭😭 this video couldn't have come at a better time :')
good luck! hope you get into wherever you want to
GOOD LUCK! Wishing you all the very best, you've got this!!
So am I! Best of luck to you!
Omg yes Jack you lifesaver i just started "trying" to write my personal statement and im struggling so much this is gonna help me so much
GOOD LUCK! Don't stress - it'll come together perfectly eventually.... it just takes time :)

ahhhhh this sounds SO fascinating - sending you all the luck in the world
I got so triggered when you mentioned IB L&L (gl my dude!)
Did you get in?
Did you get in?
C’mon, tell us.
“Uhh so I’ll see you later” *walks out of the room* , why do I relate to this 😂
the other three videos were the collabs we wanted, but this was the one we needed
I can’t even remember how I started my personal statement but I think I DID start it with a bloody question. It got me an unconditional so
I literally just wrote about epq and critical thinking the timing aha! My personal statement has to be in soon as an early applicant and I feel so much better now because I actually feel like I’ve written about the right things! Also this collab is incredible, it’s made my day :))
BEST PERSONAL STATEMENT VIDEO EVER. Hands down. Love you guys ! :)
Literally writing my personal statement as I’m watching this 🖌🖌
love ibz for the little tips he throws every now and then
I'm so confused whose video to watch first 😁
You and Jade posted at the same time 😄😄😄
But I'll start with you 😊😊
waheeey thank u thank u
The fact that I had my alarms set after jade announced the collab but I couldn't watch them for three hours is killing me
Yeah well my first sentence is about Nina and the Neurones so I’m already a master
I'm considered illiterate when I compare my words to your personal statements. 😂
Nooooo not at all! We all have completely different vocabularies, doesn't mean anyone's is necessarily better!
I just remembered that video of yours 'If Personal Statements were honest' and I mean after watching this one now it really is so similar to the personal statements I had to write this summer. You might remember me being from Germany, I applied to big companies like Adidas, BMW or Audi for a dual study program (going to uni while getting paid to be an intern there every 3 months).

Btw we won everything today yayyy!!!
Don’t think I’ve ever seen so many legends in 1 video can’t lie 😳
You all uploaded at the same time I don’t know which one to watch jxjxjndndnrng😭
hahahaha we love coordination
"here's a graph what do you think, what can u say abow THAT" had me in stitches + jade's face
Oh god! Thank you, I actually didn't know how to do this. Good job bro :D
I GOTCHU COVERED
The most ICONIC collab ever!💛
much perfection in one video 😍❤️
I've submitted mine but my guidance counselor just says omg yes that's good yes yes. I'm an international student and I asked whether I could ask my english teacher. She said no because he is way too busy and inexperienced with personal statements.
I honestly am not the most satisfied with my PS but hey it is what it is.
Thank you for this video!! It was very fun!
Really needed this AHHHHH!! 😊😊 Thanks I remember requesting this a while ago :)
your wish is our command - pulled in the big guns for this one haha
My face when Eve said she had 13 drafts of her personal statement :/ I'm on my second draft and my uni counselor says I only have a few improvements to make... I suppose I should ask a few more opinions... (At least I'm not applying for Oxbridge, although Durham, St. Andrews, Warwick, Exeter and Newcastle aren't exactly easy to get into.)
Definitely get as many opinions as you can and keep redrafting! I had a lot of drafts too, but you might've just had a better technique / structure first time!
How did you do?
I made about 8, about 5 members of staff checked it and none of them changed much. My siblings and geography teacher were so helpful (thats the degree im doing) x
A Human I’m glad! Which uni did you end up at
Alex and Dan kings college x
Woo! I've been waiting for this! 😁💕
i hope it lives up to expectation haha!
ARGHHJ I NEEDED THIS, THANK YOU❤️❤️
You’re so welcome! ☺️
This is a great video but I couldnt catch half of the things everyone was saying because you all spoke so fast!
and the vegetarian option, of course☺️ also eves little smile when she said I’m going to oxford is so adorable
I’m so excited to watch all of these collabs yay!!! XX
ohmygod my favourite youtubers in one place i-
this is gonna sound absolutely MAD because i literally already am at uni but this lowkey makes me want to apply again you guys are too inspiring send help
Collab of the Century!
I was SO excited when we decided to film together ahhhh dream collab
This couldn't come at a better time for me as I am currently applying for English at Oxford! Attempting to have the running theme of feminism, linking it to the 'times up' and 'me too' movement through all my noveks!! x
So helpful. I’ve started writing a list of transferable skills and words that I use to describe myself, and have made a list of relevant qualifications, i have written my why down, I’m just terrible at selling myself. I have level three qualifications but I don’t have A-levels, so they’re vocational qualifications that are very subject specific and there is nothing explaining tarring points and equating that to what diplomas are worth on most uni websites.
The video is a good effort, but there were so many voices at the same time that it was only confusing and noisy
Great video as always Jack! . The getting ready for uni video was brilliant and im glad I took fancy dress, I have photos I dont remember being taken and presume I had fun on the nights I cant remember of this week. 😂
hahahahaha LOVE THAT - hope you're having the best time ever!
@@jack_edwards absolutely fantastic time! Woke up one morning in the middle of a park dressed as big bird 😂😂.
thinking about starting your personal statement is so much harder than actually just starting
I'm gonna be straight up, this video didn't help me at all to prepare my personal statement because they were mostly just screaming or talking over each other ahaha
These are the videos I had no idea i needed
GOTCHU COVERED
Blessing us with all this quality content 😇😍
Sooooooo much more to come very very soon :)))
