I just finished drafting my personal statement, and I am very happy with how it turned out. It very succinctly demonstrates my motivation through a single activity that has been particularly meaningful to me. My concern is that my statement is only 3000 characters long, while the maximum is 5300 char. Is it uncommon to have a personal statement of this length?
Many of the sample statements I've read essentially try to show how all their activities fit together...is it expected that personal statements will do this? I feel that my motivation for medicine is pretty clear through this one activity.
