Overall Result: Awesome Personal Statement
Clear & Logical Flow
A strong personal statement will articulate an applicant is highly focussed, ambitious, driven, and persistent in
their vision for the future, including an explanation of short & long-term goals. A strong personal statement will
delineate how a JD degree will help an applicant get to where they want to go. Experts warn that it should not
be vague, melodramatic, or repetitive. The statement should not merely describe a person or recount an event,
it needs to convey the applicant’s personality
Beginning:
The start of a strong personal statement ought to be intriguing and should begin with a strong introduction
sentence that summarizes the applicant’s goal or tone.
Body:
After the introduction statement, the rest of the statement should follow a clear and logical flow that is coherent
and streamlined. Should focus on or explain the applicant’s rationale for pursuing a career as an attorney
End:
Would like for it to end showing how I was challenged from the start but was able to overcome the adversity
and why law school is the perfect fit for me.
