Economics and Finance
Personal
Statement
At
college the courses
that I study
are Maths, Economics
and ICT (having
discontinued
Chemistry
after
AS).
My
favourite
subject
that
I
am
currently
studying is Economics
Economic issues have become
increasingly prominent in political and
current affairs, and for me to
understand such issues was the principal
reason for me choosing to study
economics
Each and every one of us is
affected by changes in the economy
Advances in technology, changing
inflation rates, unemployment, and
balance
of
payments
troubles
are
matters
both
of
international
magnitude
and personal concern
My enthusiasm for economics has led me
to want to pursue a degree that
involves
the
theme's
accountancy
and
finance.
I
hope
this
degree
will
aid
me in a
conceivable career in Accountancy
Accountants
are
probably
best
known
for
checking
the
validity
of
company
accounts -
auditing - but this is just one aspect of what
they do.
Accountants
devise
and
operate
financial
systems,
and
advise
on
business
start-ups, company
take-overs and company rescue schemes
They also handle individuals' and
corporations' tax affairs and make
recommendations to Government on
policy. Accountants play a key role in
the formulation and implementation of
business decisions both strategic
and
political,
through
the
uniquely
analytical
approach
to
the
assessment
of the financial implications of
business plans
This
course
I
believe
will
improve
and
equip
me
with
essential
skills
that
I require. It will enhance the problem
solving and analysis skills that
I have
acquired from my A level in Economics and also
from my study of
Mathematics
Through
managing
my
work
and
from
project
based
modules
I
anticipate
that
my
planning and organisational skills will be
improved
I
believe
this
course
will
equip
me
with
practical
and
theoretical
skills
which
will
come
of
real
use
to
me
in
as
I
pursue
my
career
in
accountancy

I have been involved in voluntary work
with my local tennis club. This
involves going to the
club every Friday
and assisting the
coach with
his
training of the kids. This
has considerable responsibility, as I must
ensure
that
the
children
are
firstly
in
a
secure
environment.
I
must
also
make
sure
that
the
kids
are
becoming
more
skilled
and
taking
pleasure
from
the
sessions.
Children
work
best
in
situations
where
they
feel
liberated
and
when
they
are
enjoying
themselves,
but
at
the
same
time
it
is
important
to maintain a level of
discipline. This voluntary work has taught me a
great
deal
about
myself
and
also
enhanced
many
skills.
I
found
my
voluntary
work to be very fulfilling and it is
especially rewarding when a child
achieves something you taught them to
do
My
leisure
time
is
dominated
by
sports.
I
am
very
sports
oriented
and
revel
in playing in an
assortment of sports, which include football,
tennis,
badminton, table tennis and
swimming
I am a member of North Harrow
Tennis Club and represent them in a league
competition, which comprises of playing
matches against other tennis
clubs
I
have
been
very
successful
in
swimming
having
captured
the
distinguished
Gold
Award,
which
is
a
reputed
award.
Swimming
is
a
challenging
sport
that
improves your fitness and is very
enjoyable
I relish participating
in
tournaments, which give
me a chance to
test my
sporting
abilities. I have won many trophies in table
tennis and tennis
and I always like to
uncover ways in which I can improve my abilities
My sport has contributed to my studying
since it improves skills like
teamwork
and determination
This
year
I
have
taken
it
upon
myself
to
take
the
responsibility
of
being
Cafod
representative.
Cafod
is
a
charity
that
fights
third
world
poverty.
It
is
a
deserving
cause
that
I
try
to
support
as
much
as
possible.
My
duties
involve collecting monthly collections
and ensure the accounts for our
class
are in order. This position requires someone who
is responsible,
punctual in collection.

Economics PS (Cambridge &
LSE
offers)
Born into the
week-old ex-Soviet state of Armenia, I have grown
up in a
time
of
huge
political
upheaval.
Surrounded
by
an-ever
changing
economic
environment, I remember asking my
father what exchange rates were
. In
return,
when
presented
with
an
analogy
of
supply
and
demand
that
involved
an array of farmyard
animals, little did I appreciate that I had come
across the basis for economics. I have
since observed Armenia's rapid
development,
but
also
evidence
of
poor
macroeconomic
management,
such
as
the
lingering
presence
of
monopolies
-
crippling
to
the
country's
global
competitiveness.
Over
the
years,
my
initial
childhood
curiosity
has
grown
into a passion
for economics.
As
a
Physics
and
Maths
student,
I
derive
great
satisfaction
from
solving
problems that initially
seem impossible.
Representing my school at the
UKMT
Senior
Maths
Challenge,
as
well
as
the
national
finals
of
the
Science
and
Technology
Challenge,
I
built
up
a
keen
open-mindedness
for
new
ideas.
Game
theory,
and
its applications
in
economics,
are
of
great
interest
to
me
and
have
helped
me
better
appreciate
the
sheer
scope
of
the
discipline.
I find it
particularly interesting how oligopolists use game
theory to
anticipate competitors'
actions, comparing the risks and potential
benefits
of
certain
business
strategies,
because
this
inevitably
involves
a
degree
of
psychology
and
philosophy
-
a
testament
to
the
diverse
nature
of economics, which is beautifully
demonstrated by the prisoner's
dilemma.
My
mathematical
grounding
is
complemented
by
my
experience
with
languages,
which continually helps me develop a
more balanced and well-rounded
outlook
on
the
world
around
me.
Fuelled
by
my
great
interest
in
development
economics, I enjoy
discussing related issues in German, with my
class.
I
am
fascinated
by
the
sheer
number
of
theories
behind
alleviating
poverty
in
the third world, and how some directly contradict
each other. For
example, I agree with
William Easterly's view that initiatives like
debt-relief,
which
I
find
to
be
analogous with
bank
bailouts,
have
often
been counterproductive.
While they may be necessary in some cases, I
believe
that
both
practices
tend
to
align
the
involved
parties'
incentives
in a
way that is in fact detrimental to the economies
and societies
concerned. The April
anti-capitalist protests are a very real testament
to my point and coincided with my work
experience at a London fund
management
firm. More recently, the Conservatives' plans for
public
sector cuts have already been
met with criticism from the public; this
illustrates the challenges faced by
economists, as they search for
/.
socially viable solutions to inherently
economic problems. The
opportunity for
extensive study and analysis of such issues
attracts me
to economics at university.
Involving myself fully with my school
has really helped to transform my
educational experience; I
was recently elected Head Boy by staff and
students, following a campaign that
helped develop my interpersonal
skills,
not
to
mention
the
capacity
to
take
on
criticism,
as
I
worked
with
a wide range of
people.
Working successfully with others continues to
be a key feature of my
school career
. In particular, helping younger
pupils in my
free
time
and being able
to contribute
to their development
has
been
a
rewarding
and
invaluable
experience.
The
latter
is
especially
true now
that I work as an assistant tutor at a learning
centre, where
I
am
directly
responsible
for
up
to
six
children.
In
my
role
as
Head
Boy,
I have
demonstrated my ability to lead; just recently, I
organised and
performed
in
a
theatre
sketch
that
was
presented
to
a
panel
from
Investor
in Careers - an award that the school
then won.
Outside school, I enjoy
taking
part
in
a
variety
of
sports,
and
am
currently
setting
up
inter-form
tournaments
to be held in the sixth form. I look forward to
the rigours
and challenges of an
economics degree and would hope to be able to
contribute fully to the university
community.
Economics and
Finance Personal
Statement
In today's world, economics associated
disciplines a
re of fundamental
significance
and
application
,
which
has
encouraged
me
to
pursue
a
degree
in
Economics.
I
am
enormously
enjoying
studying
Mathematics
at
'A'
level
and
believe
that
my
strong
mathematical
background
will
enable
me
to
have
an excellent basis in which to engage
in the study of Economics.
My
passionate interest in economics is
continually strengthened by my
regular
reading of 'The Economist' and 'The Financial
Times'
Work experience that I have
recently completed at South Staffordshire
Council
(Accounts
&
Finance
Department)
has
enforced
my
comprehension
of
the
functional
applications
of
economics.
Having
attended
an
open
day
at
PricewaterhouseCoopers
I
have
learnt
about
the
assortment
of
careers
that
come about from the study
of Economics, and the everyday work involved
At
school
I
have
been
handed
many
responsibilities,
including
being
'form
leader'
and
being
assigned
the
role
of
a
prefect.
Skills
I
have
built
from
/.
these
responsibilities include the organizations of
others, along with
teamwork and the
ability to represent my fellow pupils. My other
areas
of interest have provided me with
the opportunity to attend lectures on
chemistry at Villiers Park, Birmingham
where I was chosen to represent
my
school. Currently, I am involved in completing an
AVCE ICT course at
my school, which has
enabled me to have the ability to strengthen and
vastly increase my skills in
Information Communication Technology
During my free time I keep myself
informed of recent news by reading
newspapers
such
as
Times
and
Guardian
I
regularly
attend
the
gym and also
participate in sports such as tennis and swimming
Also I enjoy singing in the school
choir. At the weekends I am actively
involved in the running of the family
business, where I have developed
my
communication
skills,
from
engaging
with
customers
and
the
public,
and
also my business skills
I
trust that throughout this brief statement I have
satisfied you of my
interest and
commitment to the
study of Economics. I believe I will make
an important
contribution to your university and aspire to have
the
opportunity to demonstrate this to
you.
Economics and Accounting Personal
Statement.
Accounting to me
is not just a subject, but a life skill. It
invokes not
only
the
core
disciplines
of
business
and
economics
but
it
provides
these
in both a
local
and global
context.
I see Accounting as
an international
common language between businesses, to
analyse accounts and influence
future
decisions companies will make.
The
application
of
business
within
the
accounting
degree
has
been
one
of
the major pulling factors
that have influenced my decision to study the
subject.
After
studying
GCSE
business
and
discovering
the
accounting
and
finance aspect of it, I have
become fascinated to learn more, going on
to extend my knowledge of the subject
by reading outside of the school
environment. As an avid reader of the
Accounting blog on the tutor2u
website,
I have gained a good grounding in the fundamental
application
of accounting, especially
in the way websites such as ‘facebook’s’
growth is driven by their own growth
through advertising, and the fact
that
their
books
and
accounts
continue
to
stay
cash
flow
positive,
despite
their
impressive rate of expansion. I am particularly
interested in the
law aspect of the
course and how decisions made can influence an
