Personal Statements What should I write my personal statement about? The Personal Statement is one aspect of the process that you have complete control over. Use the personal statement to tell us about who you are, what motivates you, where you see yourself going, or anything else you want to tell us! There are many ways to write a great personal statement, but make sure it is something, well, personal. How long should my personal statement be? We recommend 2-3 pages, anything longer should be so fascinating that we forget how long it is. Any other tips? Your personal statement is also a writing sample, so make sure that it is flawless and eloquent. Have a friend or family member carefully review it, or even better, try to convince a lawyer or law student you know to read it. Avoid speaking authoritatively on legal subjects you know little about. It goes without saying that typos in personal statements are very bad. |
