@MarcusTsang omg thank you for your response! Thank you for sharing, this just gave me a new idea LOL. I was mainly worried about how I could make everything flow, and this just helped me understand a little more. Good Luck with your studies and I'm manifesting many acceptance letters for you!

@cetjit I don't think I have a clear connection to law, besides the time I got pulled over with my Care Bears in the backseat. I didn't do anything illegal, I was just driving slow so they wouldn't fall over LOL. Could this work if I chose the Care Bears topic or should I scrap it?

@MarcusTsang I would LOVE to write about them all, but I'm more so struggling with how to connect all 3? I don't want it to be messy, because I've been advised to keep things simple and natural. However, I would love to know how you connected your topics, if you don't mind sharing.

@StephentSalter Yes, my advisor said the same thing to me. Especially since my opening sentence is like really powerful, so I appreciate your comment and definitely think that I should write about this. Thank you for the advice!

Personal Statement

Hi, I am currently drafting my personal statement and I am undecided on what route/topic I should choose. So, I am going to write down some of the ideas I have and would love to get some feedback.

My brother who died 4 months before my High School graduation, and talk about how his case introduced me to law and then wrap it up with how I want to work in criminal/corporate law? This is a sensitive topic for me, so I have been leaning away from this one.
Talk about how I've been collecting Care Bears since I was 6.
The legal TV Shows (unrealistic in a way lol) that got me interested in law.
