There are some practical things you can put in there:


- Gaps in your CV

- Explaining grades structures that are atypical

- Extenuating circumstances

- Explaining how your grades were calculated during covid (especially important if you didn’t sit modules due to compensation systems)

- Resits


However, if there is something important in your application you haven’t had the chance to explain, I would put it in there.


It is important to not just run on answers to other questions just because you ran out of word count though. But sometimes you can’t put important information in because of the limits of the application form.


For instance, with me I wouldn’t be able to put down every job I ever had, but I might want to references I worked 40 hour weeks across 4 jobs during my A-levels because my A-level grades aren’t that good.


Our company is called, "The Corporate ___ Academy". What is the missing word here?
