How to get started with writing a personal statement?

First, try to focus on your dream course and think of why specifically you want to study it. Share your passion about the subject with the reader! But before you start actually writing your personal statement, make research about your course, read some personal statements written by students who had applied on the same course as you are and plan what you want to write in your statement. Remember to grab the attention of the reader from the first paragraph! You have only 4,000 signs to show them who you are and why you are perfect for this course, so use it wisely!
