Congrats! I started with the same diagnostic, how long ago did you start studying and what was some studying strategies that worked best for you? Any help appreciated :)

I used to work at my university's writing center, so I've had my fair share of personal statements, statement of purposes, prompt responses, "why our school", etc. It always blew my mind on how people were able to so holistically and beautifully articulate their passions and why the natural progression would be attending grad school. It is this constant exposure to these essays that has made me so worried about being able to capture that in my applications. I don't have one "ah-ha!" moment, or super crazy life changing story, I honestly just feel like an average joe. Where do I even begin? What are some things to consider or brainstorm when approaching these response questions?
