Hi Ezeh,
First, you haven't quote the essay prompt in yours. It makes difficult for the other, which not familiar about the essay, to give you necessary feedback. It is better to attach the essay prompt first in order to get an appropriate feedback to this essay. Hope you don't mind with my suggestion.

Ezeh, this is not a Study in UK response. This is a definition essay that does not adequately respond to the prompt requirement. The prompt requires you to discuss why you chose 3 universities based on individualized courses offered by each university. How does the masters course you chose to attend affect your future as an architect? Explain how your background, both educational and professional, has prepared you to attend this course and has given you the confidence that you will be able to complete this course. Finally, explain how you plan to use what you learn from the course to help move your career forward after you graduate. This essay is all about your future plans and how your studies will be affecting it. That is why you are asked to discuss your previous educational background and your professional training up to the present point. The discussion of the universities requires you to be forward thinking regarding your career. The essay that you wrote doesn't do any of that. Your essay looks more like a college definition essay than a Chevening scholarship essay in relation to your potential to study in the UK.
