How Alex Scored an 8 in IELTS and Got Into the University of Westminster — Journey to Success

My name is Alex. After finishing high school, I went straight to work, so I had a gap year before deciding to continue my studies. I knew that to get into a university in the UK, I needed not only to improve my English but also to show strong motivation and potential to make up for the break in my education.

I started preparing for the IELTS exam with EduLead, and after a few months of hard work, I scored an 8! That was a huge milestone that opened doors to British universities.

Alongside my language preparation, I focused heavily on my personal statement. With the help of the EduLead team, I carefully crafted every paragraph to clearly explain why I deserved to study BSc Business Studies at the University of Westminster. A strong and honest personal statement became my biggest advantage.

The result exceeded my expectations: I received unconditional offers from all the universities I applied to!

But that wasn’t all. After securing my place, I won a UK Talent Visa — a true recognition of my skills and potential.

Now, I’m proud to be studying at the University of Westminster. This achievement was possible thanks to my determination, the support from EduLead, and believing in myself.

If you’re thinking about applying abroad, my advice is: start preparing early, don’t be afraid to show your true self, and find a team that will support you every step of the way. It really works!
