STATEMENTS & ESSAYS A GOOD STATEMENT INCLUDES REFLECTION - NOT JUST WHAT YOU HAVE DONE, BUT HOW IT HAS AFFECTED YOU. - WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM YOUR EXPERIENCES & ACHIEVEMENTS? - HOW HAVE YOU OVERCOME A CHALLENGE? http://you.ubc.ca/applying-ubc/how-to-apply/personal-profile/

HOW WILL YOU CONTINUE? BREAK THE TOPIC DOWN INTO EASY-TO-ANSWER COMPONENTS EDIT! AND HAVE OTHERS EDIT FOR YOU
