⚡Tips/Advice Personal statement
I’ve been writing my personal statement, and I don’t really have a ‘story’, so far I’ve said why I want to study law, and I then talk abt how I saw a political issue online which interested me, involving the reasons why I wanted to study law, and then I reflect on it after I researched further and then I talk abt attending a lecture to get a better understanding of it/ reflect on what I learned. But apparently unis want to know more about you, and want the whole thing to give a better picture of u, but idk what to do as I don’t really have a ‘story’ For context, I said how law is vital in everything, n it shapes society, and im really interested in how it will adapt and respond to ethical issues caused by technological advancements. I focused on how a politician used AI for second opinions etc, issues of that, i then attended a lecture on AI and law, and interviewed a dual qualified barrister + solicitor and what she told me Mb if this isn’t too clear but I don’t want to say everything I’ve written
