πŸ‘‹ Who am I
My name's Shaene and I'm a doctor, Cambridge University Graduate and Director of Studies at Oxford University. I'll be taking you from the beginning to the end of your personal statement journey.

πŸ§‘πŸ½β€πŸ« What you’ll learn
I made this class because I truly believe you deserve a place at medical school, and I don't want the personal statement to be the thing that holds you back. Let me help you craft your own unique story and make it the best as it can be! Here's what to expect in the next 38 lessons...

🧱 Part 1 - Building Blocks
  • In the first few lessons, we're first going to be looking at the expertly designed 8 pillar framework based on personal statements of students who were accepted into Oxbridge and other top ranking universities. 
  • These 8 pillars will form the basis of your thought process and help you decide what to include in the personal statement. Think of these pillars as the building blocks.
  • We're going to spend some time learning how best to reflect on experiences in ways that show the reader that you are someone who is capable of extracting lessons and developing for the better as a result of it.
  • We're going to learn about strategies like the personality pillar and writing style to help your personal statement stand out and shine.
  • Importantly, we're going to be linking all this theory to carefully analysed real life examples from past successful personal statements.

πŸ— Part 2 - The Structuring
  • Then once we've decided what to include, we're going to go through the structure and learn how to put together the building blocks to form the final product.
  • We're going to be providing you with proven syntax and paragraph formulas that will ensure that every sentence you write has a purpose.
  • We'll be learning how to structure the overall personal statement so that it flows beautifully and tells a story.

πŸ’» Part 3 - The Examples
  • One of the biggest strengths of this video course, is that I provide several example personal statements each carefully broken down and analysed.
  • And as each has come from students, now doctors, who have been accepted into Oxbridge and other top ranking unis, you can be confident that everything you learn has been tried, tested and shown to work.

✍️ Part 4 - Getting Started
  • In the final part of the class, we'll learn about the key quality table and how to make the best start to the personal statement using it. 
  • We'll then learn how to cut down and refine the personal statement so that you're left with only the most powerful and purposeful sentences. 
  • As part of this, we'll learn strategies that'll maximise what we can say in the fewest words possible. 
  • And finally, we'll meet some pitfalls to avoid and end with some final thoughts.
πŸš€ So click on the next lesson, and let’s start the journey towards your brightest future.

Here's How My Course has Helped others like You

This is by far the only real resource you need to write your personal statement for medicine. I have just finished mine! This is definitely more worth it than any other books out there. Thank you so much Dr Shaene!!!

Incredible series to prepare anyone for medicine/grad school application. Although I'm not applying to medical school, these lessons and tips surely translate to a master's/doctoral application process. Can't thank Shaene enough!! Thanks mate!

Liam Hopkins

This was such a useful class as I prepare to send in my graduate school applications. I liked that Dr Shaene took the time to analyze different personal statements and show us why they were so good. I learnt a lot of useful tips and I feel more prepared to write mine.

Well, to begin with, this has to be one of the most compelling series of lectures on SOP that I've ever come across. I still recall the days where I used to spend hours and hours refining the right contents from YouTube. And believe me, nothing made a difference. But this approach is crisp and has a beautiful flow to it. Thanks, Dr Shaene! Kudos to you!
