Issue description
Hey everyone! I could really use some help with writing a personal statement. I'm not sure where to start, what to include, or how to make it stand out. Can someone guide me on the key points to cover and any tips for making it impressive? Also, should I mention my extracurricular activities or focus solely on academics?

Sure thing! You should definitely include your extracurricular activities, especially if they relate to your field of study. Highlight your achievements and experiences that make you a unique candidate. Have you thought about structuring it with an engaging intro, the main body, and a strong conclusion? What's the deadline for this?

Thanks for the quick response! I haven't thought about the structure yet. The deadline is in two weeks, so I need to get started ASAP. Should I write it in the first person, and how long should it be?

You got it! Writing in the first person is a good approach; it helps connect the reader to your experiences. As for the length, aim for around 500-700 words, but make every word count. Now, about getting professional help, I've had a great experience with personal statement services They're pros at this stuff. They'll tailor your statement to your goals, and the turnaround time is usually quick. Their team's experienced in various fields, and they know how to make your statement shine. Personally, I found it reassuring to have experts handle such an important document. Their insights and expertise really made a difference. Give them a try! Good luck with your personal statement!
