PERSONAL STATEMENT
EDITING –
WHAT TO CONSIDER
WHILE DEALING WITH IT
Personal statement is a brief essay about your
strengths, skills, achievements, and
motivations, which can make your dream
come true; you just need to prove the
assessing committee that you’re the ideal
candidate for the place in the program.
No matter how much time and energy you have put into
writing this piece, it’s not the end. The next step is editing.
It’s crucial to send an accurate and well-organized personal
statement.
Even if your piece has so exciting story and brilliant ideas
but full of grammar and spelling mistakes, clichés,
abbreviation, has poor structure, etc., it will go right to the
“no” pile. So start editing or use personal statement editing
service.
• Allow some time to relax
Take a break after you’ve done writing the first draft. Leave
it for at least few hours and do something fun. Then being
relaxed and with fresh eyes, you’ll definitely catch more
mistakes.
• Get some help
Ask your friend or teacher to review your written piece for any potential
issues and give you feedback. You’ll be surprised how many errors can
detect another person. Use professional help from personal statement
editors, if there is no one competent to help you out.
• Read it aloud
Hear how your essay sounds: if the tone is forced, or paragraphs order
is not smooth and logical, or sentences are too long that you completely
lose their sense, all of these mean you’re going to fix your mistakes.
Readers won’t forgive you these errors, so be dear and do everything
right.
• Make sure your opening paragraph is memorable
The most important part of a personal statement is the introduction. It
must be powerful and attention-grabbing. If not, the admissions
committee won’t bother to read your piece. You need to pull your
audience in momentarily or you’ll lose their attention very quickly.
An anecdote from your life, a
relevant quote, exciting fact or
unexpected statement, or something
like that will make your story
appealing from the very beginning.
No general information and vague
sentences; instead, be specific and
concise.
• Make a story, not a list
While editing, read your written piece
back to yourself like you’re another
person and ask these questions: “Is it
compelling?”, “Is it unforgettable?”,
“Is it more than just a list of
accomplishments and skills?”
• Read about the program you’re applying for
The whole editing, make sure you’ve included the part where you
explain why you chose this particular program, what makes it stand out
from others, and that you’re completely ready to take on any academic
challenges because you’re already prepared and know what exactly to
expect from the studying.
• Leave unnecessary information behind
Mentioning you achievements or experiences from school or even earlier
aren’t appropriate. Besides, don’t start discussion of controversial topics
(religion, politics, etc.) Use statement of purpose editing service, if you
have any editing troubles.
• Delete all repetitions
Don’t repeat details you’ve already said. If you stated you
were a volunteer, don’t repeat it one more time. Besides, cut
off information such as your GPA which since it’s on your
transcript.
• Stick to the word limit
Quality is much more important than quantity.
Three pages long personal statement will
definitely impress the selection committee but in
a bad way. They’ll think of you as a lazy and
careless applicant who couldn’t even read
requirements according to the word limit.
Usually, one page is enough.
• Be pedantic
Admissions officers usually say that
perfect writing skills, accurate
language, and perfect grammar are
crucial to them as they skim applicants’
writing pieces. Remember that and
write in a concise, clear and appealing
manner.
• Double check your piece of writing
Never underestimate the importance of proofreading personal
statements. Yes, it can be really time-consuming and boring, but
submitting your piece without proper revision is a crime.
Your grammar and language must be flawless so type your
essay accurately and check it for grammar, spelling, and
punctuation mistakes. Alternatively, try personal statement
editing services review.
You’ve done editing perfectly if you:
• double-check spelling and grammar;
• follow the word limit;
• divide your essay into several paragraphs instead of one large block;
• your sentences have different structure and length;
• use active voice;
• use specific details and cut off all needless information;
• delete clichés, abbreviations, slang and unclear terms;
• write an original paper and don’t plagiarize;
• open your personal statement with a powerful paragraph and finish
your piece strong.
