Basically

Intro about yourself
What you want to do, you work ethic etc
Work/experience info
Achievements at School -grades and other stuff
Extra Curricular activities - if any
What you would give to the Uni and what you would take out of the experience
Conclusion

no no, you dont need to put that as the uni already has it in front of them, unless its qualfications from out of school stuff, you dont get many lines so you have to save space when you can :thumb

Have you made sure the college will write you a reference?

My personal statement is shocking right now. Meh.

[bcfc4life]

havent even started mine yet :(

[finchel]

i've written it, but i still havent really thought of my subject as such.

[Joshisapoolie]

I recommend writing a poem or short story.

That's what we've been told to write ours around...the subjects!

For instance i'm applying for Criminology, so i've mentioned all the books I have (craploads), future career aims, my appearances in the public galleries etc.
