Presentation by Ahmed
Thank you very much Jason for introducing me for this group and your splendid efforts in helping
the future Cheveners in achieving their dreams.
Hello everyone, my name is Ahmed Issa and I work as social media and online community
engagement manager. I am going to study MSc Marketing and Strategy at Warwick University
this year 2020/2021 and got the Chevening Scholarship from the first attempt.
I would like to talk with you about Study in the UK part and how I approached this question, but
before this I want to emphasize on some aspects.
− Open a word document and answer this critical question; Why do I want to get Masters?
Your personal, professional, and community goals? What is the impact that you want to
make in your country?
− Read as much as you can from Chevening website and about other Cheveners. Get deep
understanding what Chevening is looking for? what are the personal traits for next
Cheveners?
− Write every idea that come up to your mind that you may think will support your Chevening
application.
− Work hard every day and write every idea don’t limit yourself with 500 words. You need
to write at least 2000 words for every essay question in order to trim it to 500 words.
− Be specific and focused about everything in your application, and make it aligned around
one goal.
Now, I want to talk how I approached the Study in the UK essay question.
First, I understood every part of the question and divided it into different parts so I can answer it
fully without ignoring anything.
The question is as follows: Outline why you have selected your chosen three university courses,
and explain how this relates to your previous academic or professional experience and your plans
for the future.
The first one: why I choose the three university courses, which must be in the same specialty from
different universities. You have to choose three courses in the same field/specialty, for example, I
choose Marketing and Strategy from Warwick, Marketing from Durham, and Digital Marketing
from Loughborough.
The second part is to explain how this relates to three different things, previous academic or
professional experience, and the plans for the future.
So, I was prepared for this question to talk about UK in general and how it will benefit me, read
the Chevening website it has a lot of information about this. And don’t say general things that does
not relate to you, everything that you say make it related to your personality, your professional
experience and your future career goals.
That’s how I approached the study in the UK essay question. If you have any question please let
me know.
Moderator: Ahmed, many thanks for this short but in-depth presentation.
The group will be open for some questions.
