Postgraduate Personal Statement Editing

How does the graduate personal statement editing service work?

Each one of our graduate editing services includes a fully comprehensive review and edited version of your graduate personal statement.

We’ll ask you to upload your graduate personal statement along with other relevant information about your university application, and within 5 days, we’ll return your statement fully edited, along with a report detailing the improvements we’ve made.

What’s included in the graduate personal statement editing process?

Each graduate personal statement we receive is carefully reviewed against a list of criteria designed to ensure you present your skills, abilities, and ambitions to the admissions tutors in a clear and concise manner. From fixing single spelling mistakes to rewording whole sections, we will review, edit, and polish each line of your personal statement to ensure you have the best chance of success.

Your editor will apply the same techniques used to edit books, newspaper articles and printed publications to your personal statement. These include:

• Correct any spelling and grammar issues
• Fix the misuse of punctuation and capitalisation
• Reword poorly structured sentences
• Prune unnecessary words and over-long sentences
• Ensure a consistent style and ‘voice’ is used throughout your statement
• Check paragraphs flow together cleanly, and the statement reads well.

Your editor will also focus on issues specific to writing graduate personal statements:

• Show you how to write a memorable introduction
• Ensure all topics for discussion have been adequately covered
• Check the correct proportion of the statement has been dedicated to each topic
• Help you articulate your strengths and skills and help sell yourself to the reader
• Remove references to potential weaknesses or topics to avoid
• Help you round off your statement with a solid conclusion.

What do we include with your personal statement order?

Once we’ve finished editing your graduate personal statement, you’ll be emailed the completed statement along with a report detailing what changes we’ve made to your statement and why.

Your report will contain the following sections to help you fully understand all our changes:

• A detailed review of your existing personal statement
• A summary of your strengths and weaknesses
• A list of the improvements we’ve made and the reasons for doing so
• Recommendations for other areas which could be improved.
