UCAS Plagiarism...

It seems that there is an alarming amount of plagiarism with UCAS personal statements. The article from the BBC News website:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/6426945.stm

says that 234 people copied a personal statement from the www.studential.com website telling a story about how burning a hole in pyjamas lead to an interest in chemistry. The example personal statements I have uploaded are there for reference only! It will sound a lot more convincing if it describes you, comes from you and you've put some time and thought into it.
