DOs and DON’Ts REAL COURSES
REAL LIFE
for personal statements
#GetReal
falmouth.ac.uk/get-real
DOs
• Do show that you know your strengths and can
outline your ideas clearly.
• Do be enthusiastic – if you show you’re interested in
the course, it may help you get a place.
• Do expect to produce several drafts
of your personal statement before
being totally happy with it.
• Do ask people you trust for their feedback.
DON’Ts
• Don’t exaggerate – if you do you may get
caught out in an interview when asked to
elaborate on an interesting achievement.
• Don’t rely on a spellchecker as it will not pick up
everything – proofread as many times as possible.
• Don’t leave it to the last minute – your statement
will seem rushed and important information
could be left out.
• Don’t let spelling and grammatical errors spoil
your statement.
REMEMBER you can write up to 4,000 characters
of text to show why you’d make a great student.
