personal statement overlaps secondaries

A lot of the secondary applications that I've seen posted ask the applicant to describe a situation in which they were faced with a challenge. I mentioned overcoming a certain challenge in my personal statement. Does this mean I have to come up with a different example? Is it bad to repeat yourself? Another question asks to identify an experience you found most rewarding which is also in my PS. Does this mean I cannot talk about the same experience in the secondary? thanks

Either pick a different example, or go into way more detail on the secondary. As much as is possible, don't repeat yourself.
