For this purpose, you have to think back to an important event in your life or other personal experiences that affected your academic or professional choices. Select an appropriate story which is relevant to the theme of your program.
Give a background of what all that you have learnt at college, and through projects till now show your proficiency in the subjects, and how it has motivated you to pursue advanced study.
Discuss your practical experiences (projects, research, seminars, conferences, publications, additional courses, workshops, industrial trainings, internships)
Give details of all work experiences and/or internships you may have done.
The SOP should have details on why you want to pursue MBA and also why at this point in time? Write the names of any specialisation of your interest. What skills do you want to enhance through this program? What skills do you need?
How will this course help you to achieve your goals? What kind of a company will you join? What kind of work do you want to do? This can be industry jobs, research jobs or a combination of both. Also discuss what exactly you want to do in that job. Leading from your short-term goal, what do you want to do in the long term i.e. 10-15 years from now? where do you see yourself? How do you see yourself contributing to the industry or the world at large? You have to be very specific.
Why this particular university? Some specific features of the university that suit your requirements. Add names of any faculty, clubs, activities, subjects in the curriculum/electives that you wish to pursue, and also the scope of these in enhancing your profile. For giving these details you need to visit the university and programme website.
Why do you want to study in UK?
Write a paragraph about your extracurricular activities and volunteer work. How have they helped you to evolve and whether you feel that based on your background you can contribute to any student organization/ programme in the university?
End with 3-4 lines of conclusion to show your preparedness for the task at hand.
