Hello, Joe! Thank you so much for what you're doing! I wanted to ask whether you check statements for graduate course. If you do, how can I reach out to you for reviewing? I have mine written and rewritten more than a few times, but with applying for Oxford comes with doubts and some anxiety, so I really need an outside and honest perspective.

What would you suggest differenlty for a PPE essay

@halflife7501 Год назад

Thanks this was really helpful. Currently in the process of writing mine. I am looking for a book to read that contrasts the idea of free and open trade. Therefore, what books would you suggest that argue for protectionist policies, ideally the book would be old as I haven’t read a historic economic text yet. It’s just I’ve been unable to find one that meets this criteria.

@oblivious9609 2 года назад

Do you have any advice on cutting characters? I’ve written two economics sections, extra curricular and conclusion, planning on intro and two more econ sections and at This rate my finished one will be like 5500 characters 😂

@JoeMead 2 года назад

5500 characters is absolutely fine to cut down from! Honestly there's no secrets: you just have to take several passes and cut non-essential words and phrases. As I said in the video, it's okay to jump around a bit in the personal statement, don't worry about being super fluid.

Hello did you get in if you don’t mind me asking?

@@constantinoplepasha5332 no I was rejected pre interview, most likely because I didn’t do well enough in the TSA. I’d known that timing was tight, but time disappeared when I did mine 😂

Ive heard that oxbridge don't actually read your personal statement and they rely on the admission tests. Is this true?

@JoeMead 2 года назад

Admission tests are a (much) more important component of the application, but personal statements often come up in the interview at Oxbridge!

@thebatmanshown8432 Год назад

Hey Joe, thanks for the video! Quick questions, I had re-written several ‘first’ paragraphs based on development and behavioural economics but I am not really sure about how to just write something, is there any advice I could receive from you and also is behavioural development economics actually a real field (I saw it online but I don’t know if I can fully trust the websites)?

@JoeMead Год назад

Hey! Behavioural economics and Development economics are definitely 'real' standalone fields. Merging the two is definitely interesting and valid, but there'll understandably be fewer people at the intersection of the two

@olivervincent3174 Год назад

Hi Joe! Thanks for making this video. May I ask about the format of the personal statement? Like font, size, margins, single or double space, etc? Thank you in advance!!!

@JoeMead Год назад

Hi Oliver - you don't have to worry about any of that as I believe when you submit to UCAS you copy paste into a text box. The only limit is the 4000 character count

Should I still apply to Oxford Economics and Management without further maths?. I do economics, maths , psychology at a level and a finance course that's worth half an A level?

@bob820 2 года назад

so a small paragraph about management is enough? something short and concise?

@JoeMead 2 года назад

I'd actually recommend a fair chunk be allocated to the management section. It can be up to 70% of the degree and needs to have its fair share of character count. 2:1 ratio of Econ: Management would be fine I think.
