Drafting your personal statement? Listen in on the three things that I've been seeing on statements to AVOID! 

Episode Highlights

• Avoid centering trauma or obstacles in life without discussing its impact on yourself and passions. Think about how that event has made you who you are or made you choose the path you chose.

• It’s important to understand that it takes some time to get good at a certain area of law because if you're saying in an application, I'm going to do seven different kinds of law that tells admissions that you have no idea how this works. It's going to take you very long time to get good at seven different types of law. Avoid being vague and narrow down your focus.

• It’s easy to spot an essay that hasn’t been outline. Avoid having a lack of structure.
