5% “cheat on UCAS forms”

Large number of UCAS cheats

But to what end?! Anyway, UCAS is going to scan all personal statements this time around according to the BBC. We’ll see how many use the burnt pyjamas story next time (284 in the trial last year I think). So, we’ll find out when a personal statement is not actually a personal statement and then universities will have to decide what action to take. Will we really turn away 1 in 20 applicants?
