Different PS's required for Brooklyn, Seton Hall????

After taking a closer look at the applications for some of these schools, it appears that the personal statements required are slightly different. For example, Brooklyn wants to see a statement that relates to your drive and why you would be a good lawyer specifically. Do I really need to craft a separate personal statement that is different for each of these schools????

Or...

Can I keep the same personal statement (verbatim) and then utilize the Addendum to write personal statements that are tailored specifically to each school? (this was my intention).

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

If a school asks that a specific topic be addressed, you need to do just that.

Addenda are meant to be short explanations of a particular aspect (generally low points) of your application.
