Problem with Personal Statement
Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2012 6:23 pm
Hello everyone,
I was looking over my personal statement today and I noticed that I have a slight grammatical error in the last paragraph of the it. To be precise, it reads:
"With all these factors in mind, I am fully commitment to the study of law"
When it should read:
"With all these factors in mind, I am fully committed to the study of law"
Sadly I have already submitted the statement.... What do I do?!?! I am so worried because I was so happy with my application and now I fear that this will jeopardise my chances of getting in. LSAC says that - in the case of a mistake - one must contact the law school directly - do you think this would be a good idea? Or, should I leave the mistake and hope it goes unnoticed?
In sum - oh dear! Any advice would be great.
Thank you!
