Simple but rare personal statement question

Hi,

I applied to Pharmacy school 2 years ago but then I realized that this isn't what I really wanted to do. Then I chose medicine and occupation of physician. Right now I am in process of applying for '11 med school just like most of us.

Now I had written nice PS for Pharmacy school that I still copy of. Lot of my intents, principles and feelings are same that i had portrayed in that essay.

For med school PS, I have changed some things from my pharmacy school's PS but most of it is still same.

Should it be OK? Will self plagiarism be a problem?

Thanks in advance people 🙂

You can't really plagarize your own work.

I think you'd be just fine. Many of the reasons for wanting to do one or the other ARE the same. If you tried to write it from scratch, you'd still come up with a pretty similar essay.
