I need some pointers and some examples. I sented my personal statement in already, but since i'm reapplying for next year... do i need a new personal statement letter or just keep the old one???


And if anyone would or can.. please give me some pointers..


Thank you!
 
Why not just use the same one that you used this year and finesse it a little. Get more people to read it over and look at it better. etc etc etc.

Why did you decide to reapply next year if you've already applied this year? THe cycle is still young. 😉

If you are reapplying, i think it would be very wise to put something in your next personal statement that says something to do with what you have done differently this next time around. Schools will know you applied to them this year and would definitely be wise to tell them what you've learned and why you should be selected this year. Some schools really like the whole I-was-weak-but-now-am-strong-reapplicant thing. use it to your advantage. Good Luck amigo
 
I would advise to just be yourself and write from your heart. Write how you feel, not what you think they want to hear. Sincerity sounds the best; they can tell if you are just writing BS.
