You should be able to link your past experiences to your suitability for the programme and expand on anything else that is relevant.
What is your proudest non-academic achievement?
This could be professional, personal, or extra-curricular, but we want to know about your proudest non-academic achievement to date, and how it has helped shape you into the person you are today. We love to hear about all the interesting things that applicants have done and achieved, and this is a great way to differentiate yourself from other candidates.
What would you contribute to the cohort and the Imperial community?
This question is your opportunity to show us how you will enhance the college experience of those around you and how you will make the most of your time at the Business School. Think about how you will make the campus community a better place, whether this be through participation in extracurricular activities or interactions with staff and students across campus.
How would you use your degree to make a positive impact?
We want to know how the programme will benefit you, both during your studies and in the future. Perhaps, you could use this section to tell us about how your programme fits into your long-term goals, or any long-term objectives you have relating to your chosen area of study.

文书思路建议
职业规划整个部分问得非常细，一定要写得足够清楚，各个模块注意不要答非所问
后续问题包括PS得篇幅限制都比较少，拒绝花里胡哨，紧着最有意义的东西去说，IC这类院校不是那种喜欢听别人无脑夸的学校，把事情说清楚是第一要务
软件技能那个部分还是挺重要的，稍微用点心，这个部分不要混，要是实际的经历，最好能详细一些。
