  • These 5 mistakes on your SOP will kill your application. I see almost every applicant making them and it's important to know them before you submit your Statement of Purpose. You cannot afford to miss this if you are going in for your bachelors, masters, or Ph.D. overseas.

    1. Dont put everything in your SOP. Lower the redunduncies. Be consise, short and specific.
    2. Instead, focus on how did your projects help you grow, what are your contributions and the things that you did.
    3. Do not include summaries of books, do not overdo or prove or convince on a certain topic. Focus on selling yourself.
    4. Talk about how can you contribute in the university where you are applying and tell why the program is right fit for you.
    5. Customize the draft of your SOP when you are trying to apply to different universities.

    Hey, the video is very informative but would like to suggest that you should add some texts or images while you explain topics! Or write them down while you explain! It's kinda difficult to follow the video after sometime! And it's difficult to remember all that you said in the video! Just a suggestion! Great video! ❤️

    What do you recommend for a PhD applicant who had no research experience in BSc, only a dissertation in MSc, and now an official research stint at an Institute which is of not much avail.

    Thanks a lot man, very helpful. I have a question, I was planning on applying for some top schools for mech eng. (UC Berkeley, U Michigan, Georgia tech, UCLA), and I did my GRE around 1 week ago and got 314 (Verbal 152 and Quant 162) with a 4 in the writing. I feel that this score is too low (especially the verbal) for the universities I was aiming for. Do you recommend that I redo the GRE in early December, considering that deadlines are early-mid January? and how important is the GRE in the decision process for engineering courses?

      ​@@ngonidzashelesleyshangwa5480 Yes, I did end up getting a couple offers from the universities I wanted, thank God. However, I applied to master's programs, so I'm not sure if I can be of much help. All I can say about the GRE is that don't give it too much importance, as long as you get 315-320+ if you're aiming for top universities then you are more than good enough, it is just something universities use to eliminate people with unusually low scores (

    Hi Yash,
    Thanks for the informative video, I have a few questions regarding the above,
    1) Say I want to work with Prof. A in a university and mention this in my SOP, suppose Prof. A does not have any vacancies in his/ her research group, will that result in me getting rejected? or will I be considered by another Prof. working in the same/ similar research area?
    2) If I specify my interest to work with two or more Profs.( in the same area of research), will it have a negative impact on my application as they may think I am unsure?

      I think you should talk to the professor first, and then accordingly write your SOP.
