Customer Reviews
Fantastic aid!
This book is a fantastic way to get started, especially in the early stages when you may not know how/what to include. It gives you a basic framework to work from and handy hints about how to link paragraphs. Follow the guidelines however ensure that you make it personal and relevant to you! A great tool.
Absolutely Essential
Where do you start with "possibly the single most important document you will ever write". The answer is simple, Paul Telfer's book - Personal Statements.
This is the third time I have tried to help with a Personal Statement. The first time was long and painful, the second was a little easier. The third is progressing smoothly because now we know what we have to say, how we should say it and the order we have to say it in. This book was invaluable for a "3rd statement veteran" so I suggest that for anybody new to this it is absolutely essential.
The book is beautifully written and structured and so logical and easy to follow. There's even a really useful lesson on grammar and punctuation at the back. Now that we have this book we are wondering what all the fuss is about. Whether you are a student on your own or a parent trying to help, buy it. It will be money well spent.
invaluable!
I bought this book for my niece and was delighted when she told me how helpful it had been. She was really struggling with her statement not knowing what to write about and in what order. This book made the whole process straightforward and we would thoroughly recommend it to all university applicants.
