What are your hobbies and interests?

Make sure you include extracurricular activities that show you are passionate about more than just the topic you will be studying.Personal statements need to have many hobbies such as art, drawing, sports etc. which you do in your daily life.Try and use these hobbies to your advantage and think of skills they have given you e.g. by playing football in a team you have gained team working skills.
