Personal Statements

In 2011, 344,064 students applied to go to university, a 2.2% increase on 2010 (with 96.692 application choices being made to Medicine and Dentistry alone). With so many applicants there can be a real struggle to stand out from the crowd and to show universities that you are the right student for them. Many applications are indistinguishable, with 1 in 8 A-level students receiving 3 or more A and A* grades at A-level, making it more important than ever that you have a flawless personal statement that conveys your passion and eagerness to succeed.

Our consultants are just as passionate as you and want you to excel. Because of this, they can provide you with specialist, personal advice tailored to you and your dreams. We spend time talking to you about your interests, studies and ambitions to help you build the very best personal statement that you can.

Contact us on to enquire about our services and to learn more about how we can help you.

Silver Service

Telephone advice £40

Our consultants will analyse your personal statement, discuss with you the positives and negatives of what you have written and talk to you about your background and your ambitions to see if there is anything valuable that you have missed that universities would value.

Using this information, our consultants will give you constructive guidance on what you need write to make your personal statement as dynamic and unique as you.

Even if you have not yet written your personal statement, our consultants can work with you on the silver service to make a detailed plan for your personal statement, perfect if you are having trouble knowing where to start on this daunting and important task.

Gold Service

With our gold service, our consultants will provide you with the excellent advice provided in the silver service, but they will also proofread your personal statement, ensuring that there are no grammatical or spelling mistakes in your writing and pointing out any areas that may need restructuring to improve the flow and clarity of your statement.

You will also be provided with a comprehensive written review to summarise your feedback.

Platinum Service

All improvements will be fully explained and a detailed review of your personal statement will be provided for your reference.

Interview Coaching

Once you reach the interview stage of your application you have reached your real opportunity to shine. However, this is often the stage when students get most nervous as there is no longer any chance to hide!

Interviews are often something that young people have simply not experienced yet. When this fact is added to the importance of the occasion it can often lead to them underperforming. This has nothing to do with their ability but simply their nerves!

We want you to walk into your interview with confidence and passion and to be able to show your interviewer the real you. Our consultants can give your the advice and practice that you need to excel, to ensure that you know exactly what to expect on interview day and hopefully you will even enjoy the experience.

Silver Service

Telephone advice £40

Interviews can be unquestionably daunting, especially when you have never experienced them before. Our consultants will be able to provide you with information about what you should expect, examples of questions that you may be asked and advise you on good ways to deal with these questions in an interview, all designed to take away the unknown of interview day.

Our consultants will answer any questions that are worrying you to give you the confidence that you need to shine.

Gold Service

Telephone practice interview £90

In addition to the advice session provided in the silver service, the gold service will give you direct experience of an interview experience as our consultants provide you with a mock up telephone interview. After the interview, they will provide you with detailed, constructive feedback over the telephone about what you can do to improve your interview skills.

Students will also be provided with a report on their interview, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses and providing useful tips for future reference.

Platinum Service

Practice interview in person £POA

In addition to the valuable interview advice provided in the gold and silver service, one of our experienced interviewers will interview you in person and give you constructive advice as to how to improve as well as guidance on what else you can expect from your interview day. The fact that this interview is in person means that our consultants can give you feedback on your body language and how you present yourself, ensuring that nothing lets you down in your interview.

You will be provided with a detailed report after the session, where your strengths and the areas that require more work are analysed and detailed information is given into what the interviewer wants to see in the perfect candidate.
