Personal Essay

Hi everyone! I had a question. I took the LSAT in April 2026 and applied for schools in June 2026, so I was very late to the 2026 admissions cycle. One school waitlisted me but essentially asked for me to reapply for the 2027 cycle and even told me when their applications open (hopefully a good sign!). When reapplying, should I reuse my personal essay or write a new one? I really liked how the essay turned out, but I don't want to be seen as lazy. I am a first-generation law applicant, so I am unsure how this works. Thank you!
