How not to be prepared
Posted on August 5th, 2008 by Matt.
It’s by doing this website I’ve realised that I’ve only done one stupid thing this summer. I’ve left all of my notes on, and prospectuses for, the universities I’m thinking about applying to back on my bed in halls. In the same pile is my personal statement, and the books I bought about getting into medicine.
It’s a good thing, therefore, that I had planned to buy one more book this summer, Progression to Medicine, Dentistry and Optometry 2009 Entry by UCAS. It’s a real shame I can’t seem to find it in a high street shop anywhere, because I’d like it now! Instead I’ve bought it off the UCAS website, and should have it by the end of the week. A bargin for only ?19.99 including delivery – well, I’ll think it was a bargin if it helps me get in, if not I’ll think I’ve wasted ?20.
They say that first drafts of personal statements are always in need of re-drafting, so I may as well go ahead and just do that. I don’t suppose it can do any harm, this way I’ll be able to pick the best parts from both of them!
