WHY BUY THIS GUIDE?
In-depth
The guide issued by the Foundation Programme authorities is very basic and tell you little more than "choose a good example". In our experience, many students find it difficult to find examples in the first place, let alone a good one and when they find one, they lose marks because it is poorly explained. Our guide will take you through the different steps required to produce impressive and thorough answers, all this within the 200 word limit imposed on you.
Up-to-date
We wrote the guide AFTER the online application form is published. Its content is therefore entirely tailored to the current form.
