go to predental.com.....and you'll find some help for perswonal statement.
I believe the 4500 characters includes spaces (but not 100% sure). I kind of forget for some reason. I am bit a lazy right now to pull out mine and count it out for ya. But as you are typing your essay in the aadsas window, it will count the characters automatically. It will stop you automatically once you reach the max.
i think predental.com is a bit cool.
