Show, not tell. I would take out much of the first paragraph.

Great to hear! Thanks!
I've been thinking about this actually, but struggling to think of an alternate introduction. I don't think the current intro is bad, but I wrote a DS so I do t wanna come off as redundant.LawSchoolApp123321 wrote:Show, not tell. I would take out much of the first paragraph.

Re: ***Submitting tonight...PLZ Help w/ one final proof***
I sent you a PM with some more detail.
The only thing missing for me, is why this all matters. I like the statement as it shows some great personal strength, but my personal preference is to put at least a paragraph in there explaining what this means for the study of law/the study of law at a particular institution.
Hope that makes sense.

Made it through "somewhat deviated from" and stopped. No one says that. Don't use weird words / phrasing to try to sound smart.

Also, use more active voice.
