Personal statement

sarahv4 · October 2017

Hi all (: I just joined so I'm sorry if I'm not doing this correctly.. I've never written in a forum before! I was just curious if you guys had any advice on personal statements? I just finished mine but I'm not sure how great it is, or if my topic is ok. Thanks!

Bumping this so more people see it since it's now on page 2.

A few things people would likely want to know:

What's your PS topic about? Are you willing to share it with others via email so they can give their opinion?

Yes! I am curious about the acceptable length for our PS. This is definitely something I would like to hear more about.

Howdy, Stranger!
