A lot of people here are saying that the statement has a lot of say on how you progress and I can’t say I spent a long time writing mine aha
Haha yeah, same for me. I didn’t realise the statement was going to be so important otherwise I would have put a lot more effort into it. I’m hoping it will standout as it’s a pretty raw statement considering I didn’t see the help sheet that explained what they are looking for. Hopefully it’s a bit like the trains and if you start going on about how much you love trains they decline the application for fear of hiring a spotter lol.
