I would like your help with writing a personal statement for the University of Reading for the course Accounting and Finance. I am currently an international student completing my foundation year at Cardiff University, and I am originally from Qatar.
I would like guidance on how to structure and write a strong personal statement. From my understanding, it should include: • Why I am interested in Accounting and Finance • My enthusiasm for the subject • How my previous studies relate to the course • Any relevant work experience, placements, volunteering, or achievements • Activities or hobbies that demonstrate relevant skills • The qualities and skills that make me a strong candidate
I also understand that, as an international student, I should mention: • Why I chose to study in the UK • My English language skills and any English courses or tests I have taken • Why I prefer studying abroad rather than in my home country
I would really appreciate your advice on how to structure it properly (introduction, main body, and conclusion) and how to make it strong and impressive for the admissions team.
