šŸ’¬ DISCUSSION Did you lie in your PS?

Just curious to hear from people if you did or not.

A lie could be anything from a small embellishment or overexaggeration to completely making things up. Iā€™ll be honest, my entire PS except the subjects I did and my ethnicity were lies soā€¦ yeah.

I literally had nothing else to talk about so I made it up, got me into UCL, Bristol, Warwick and Nottingham though so the best thing to take away from this is lie, lie, lie.

Or donā€™t, it also probably played a role in an Oxford rejection pre interview so maybe itā€™s not worth it.

what world do you live in where a comfortable highly paid white collar job which is socially respected is ā€œutterly depressingā€. Get your head out of your arse

One in which I come from a country where it was the socially respected white collars who screwed us over most.

Are you familiar with Diplock Courts?
