hey guys welcome oh welcome back to my channel
channel
if you don't know me yet my name is
rachel and
i applied to undergraduate economics
courses in the uk last fall
i got offers from all the unis i applied
to including
cambridge llc ucl and welbeck
so as you may know personal statements
are a very important factor in uni applications
applications
especially in the uk also in the us
it's debatable for cambridge and oxford
because they have
many other indicators such as entrance
exams and interviews
but for unis like osce and ucl which are
also quite popular it's definitely an
important factor
we can get all sorts of advice on like
how to show your passion
on how to get started with your personal statement
statement
from lots of sources including other youtubers
youtubers
your school support office and even from
some official sites such as
ucas itself which is surprisingly helpful
helpful
but what really got me into writing my
personal statement
last year during this time was because a
friend of mine gave me an
opportunity to read his personal
statement so
i thought in this video i might read my
own personal statement just to
give you a feel on what a personal
statement should look like
and maybe help you getting started with
a personal statement if you haven't
already so
here it is economics first dazzled me
when i encountered the multiply effects
along with its mathematical explanation
a simple yet captivating manipulation of
geometric series
read indexes the auto strategy i
discovered the versatile utilization of
mathematics and economics analysis
namely the net discount value which
determines investment strategies in game theory
theory
i disagree with the dependence on the
net discount values alone
as it may not holistically reflect the outcomes
outcomes
ignoring the possible negative social
implications and therefore the financial
losses incurred from any betrayal
this could be especially relevant for
brexit as non-cooperative stances and
away with anti-intellectualism
may be associated with the uk
endangering commercial or even political
deals that can benefit the uk in the
foreseeable future
as a fungal reason i witnessed a severe
divergence from actual human behavior
from irrational assumptions of homo economics
economics
south of brownies surged dramatically
once close substitutes
such as cakes were introduced as consumers
consumers
are extremely diverse inspired by the
work of carmen
sailor i published the paper taking
other attributing
factors into account namely the demand
shocks caused by covet 19
and the charitable narratives regarding
sales known as the framing effect
i propose the prevalence of similar
behavior factors in the flourishing
bubbling industry as part of my epq
i enjoy applications of mathematics and economics
economics
notably calculus in the theory of firms
for example to determine the level of output
output
for maximized profit in an award-winning essay
essay
i proved that the notion of a free
launch is economically unviable
by integrating proof by contradiction
with economic analysis
i enumerated a lack of villain providers
incentivized by personal gain
and of willing receivers under social
pressure as the core reasons
let alone the ambiguity in the
definition of costs and benefits
i'm intrigued by the drivers of the
rapid economic growth in china since 1978
1978
i encountered the solar model during
internship at the institute of economic
affairs in summer 2020
where the production function is
improved by the dynamic capital accumulation
accumulation
a steady state of growth may be
dependent upon productivity
savings and capital depreciation rates therefore
therefore
enhanced level foreign direct investment
may prove
prominent among various contributors
however one could argue applications of
imported technologies may have raised productivity
