There is some advice here. Get your teacher/tutor to check it for you, and ask on how to improve. Keep bugging them and asking, that's what they get paid for.

There's also a thread about it here, although they discuss a medical career in that one.

what does 'lmao' stand for?

Members are reminded not to use such phrases - we can see why they are inappropriate for an Islamic forum.

Lol, Funny as it is I'd discourage this, Universities base their interviews on what you have written and they have a tendency of grilling applicants considering they get a stupid amount of people who desire to apply every year.

Here are some samples of good personal statements: http://www.studential.com/personalstatements/default.asp
