If you want to get into American University and get full ride scholarship it has to be outstanding.
    Pretty much the same tips can be used when writing an essay for any university, because many European universities have adopted American kind of application essays.

    3.Shape to your audience
    4.Specify the place

      People might have the false impression of the video as a whole. The person in the video is explaining things broadly rather than narrowly.

    The first important lesson a student must learn from this video is that one ought to write a unique motivation letter for each university application. It means that one must write six unique motivation letters or statements of purpose for application to six universities after conducting in-depth research on what each of the six universities has to offer. Thanks!

    It is great advice and guides to write SOP. What I want to say in short is that when he refers to considering your self as a character from what I understand is that your SOP to represent your self as you represent in person to new institution staff. Its not the voice missing I thing you misunderstand him and may be other can take it in that way which is not good. Thanks!
