How it works

Three steps from draft to marked-up statement

  1. Send your draft

    Book a package above. The booking page asks for your course, target universities and application type, and you attach your draft right there (any stage, first attempt to fourth). Draft not ready? Book now and email it later.

  2. We personally review it

    Every comment, edit and judgement call is checked and signed off by a Cambridge economist before it reaches you. 72 hours standard turnaround; rush available.

  3. You get a marked-up deliverable

    A tracked-changes document plus a plain-English write-up of what’s working, what changed, and what to do next. A redraft review is available once you’ve made your edits.

Why EconCoaching

We edit and coach. We don’t ghost-write.

We read your draft, mark it up, and tell you exactly what to change and why. Nothing is run through an AI tool and handed back as your statement. That keeps you safe against UCAS’s similarity and AI-detection checks, and keeps the finished statement sounding like you, which is what a tutor is actually listening for.

A marked-up economics personal statement with tracked changes and a margin comment

Built for the new three-question format

Each answer, on why this course, how your studies prepared you, and what else you’ve done outside the classroom, is assessed on its own, so each one needs to stand up alone. We check all three, individually and as a set, so nothing repeats and nothing’s left thin.

Economics checked, not just prose

If you name a model or theory, we check whether it’s actually correct, not just present. A shaky definition stated confidently is worse than leaving the concept out. This is the part a grammar-only check will never catch.

Tailored to your university list

An Oxbridge-facing answer needs a different balance of depth and defensibility than one aimed at other Russell Group departments. Tell us your target universities and we’ll tailor the feedback to them.

FAQ

Before you book

Which package should I choose?

For most students, Edit. Proofread only fixes what’s mechanically broken. It won’t tell you if your argument is thin or your structure isn’t working, and for most drafts that’s the bigger problem. Premium is worth it if you’re aiming at Oxbridge or another highly selective course and want the economics itself stress-tested line by line.

What’s the turnaround time?

72 hours as standard. Need it faster? A 24–48 hour rush option is available as an add-on.

Is this safe to use given UCAS’s similarity and AI checks?

Yes. We edit your own material. We don’t generate text and hand it back to you. The words in your final statement are yours; our job is to help you sharpen them.

How does this work with the new three-question format?

You can send all three answers together, or one at a time if you’re drafting in stages; either way works. We check each one against what that specific question is asking, and flag anything duplicated across answers or under-using your character budget.

Can I send extra documents, like notes, a reference or a college-specific brief?

Yes. If a target university has particular quirks we should know about, or you’ve got notes from a teacher or adviser, send them alongside your draft. More context means sharper feedback.

Will this guarantee me an offer?

No, and we wouldn’t trust anyone who tells you it will. What we can do is make sure your statement is doing everything it can for you: specific, well-argued, and genuinely yours.

What happens to my draft?

Your draft is yours. Student drafts and personal details are kept confidential, used only to prepare your review, and deleted on request. Nothing is shared with third parties, and nothing you send is used to train any AI tool.
