Personal Statements...

[Umar001]

As Salam Alaykum guys

Anyone here an expert on personal statements, I'm kind of getting mine done at the moment and would love to read some

Also any place where they keep famous people's personal statements?

Would like to read some of those.

I've been to uni before, but left it caz I had too much to handle, so now I'm choosing a different course and writing up a personal statement for law.

inshaAllah

what about you?

Am hoping to study theology or study of religions.

Well that's what I'm applying for. I'm finding it easier now, its just getting started for me that was the problem.

P.S. Getting started is a common problem. You need to say something original that will grab the attention of a bored individual sifting through hundreds of applications... you'll think of something Insha'Allaah.
