On Friday, the 24th of August, we hosted our first advice evening for A-level students and their parents on the topic of applying to universities and writing a good personal statement. The workshop was run by Vivek Gathani, our lead Mathematics tutor and a former UCAS advisor at Haberdashers’ Aske’s Boys’ School.
The fourteen participants of the workshop received advice about the application process and looked into the specifics of writing a good personal statement for their UCAS applications. After discussing the content and language of personal statement, parents and students had a chance to brainstorm ideas for their own personal statement, as well as ask questions and discuss the intricacies of successfully applying to particular universities with Vivek.
Thanks to everyone who attended and best of luck with writing your applications!
