This example looks more like a SOP than a personal statement

The UC personal history statement asks for no more than 2 pages single spaced. I usually ask my students to attempt to write close to that limit.

Do you have any vedios on Writing Sample for graduate applications , I am looking for the one you made specifically and I haven't find one yet from you

[@vaidehinair4266]

Most UK universities for my programme only asked for a personal statement, so it will be more informal right?
