Personal statement introductions can be difficult to write, but there are a couple of things you can do to get around writer’s block:
Brainstorm and plan thoroughly
Note down all the reasons you’ve chosen your specific course and give yourself time to think over your answer. If you can look in the mirror and confidently explain your motivations for applying to your chosen course, you’ll have a much easier time writing them into your personal statement.
Write your introduction last
Your personal statement introduction previews your reasons for applying and the reasons you think you’d be a good fit at your chosen university. If you’ve already typed out your reasons for applying, you’ll find it much easier to lead into them.
Write something and redraft it later
Editing a bad introduction is easier than writing a good one from scratch. Get some ideas on the page and look over it later with fresh eyes. By allowing yourself to reflect on what you wrote first, you’ll have a better idea of what you actually want to tell the admissions tutor.
