I have been working as a college counselor in the past few years, and I would like to give you some feedback on your personal statement. As I am still revising my own PS, it will be great if you can take a look at mine as well.

which section is it?

section 1. Thanks a lot

#help disagree with JY in the sense that I think "incompatible elements" actually refer to both "diverged living standards" and "monetary union". There is nothing "incompatible" in different countries having different living standards. It is just the difference in living standards was assumed to be incompatible with having a monetary union.
