Honestly, I didn't submit a personal statement to Toledo. Though, they said that the scholarship committee usually likes to look at them. So, I threw together one. I basically broke all the rules: put it together hastily and sent it off. Thing is, I need a scholly determination soon because the deadline to reserve my seat is rapidly approaching. It's next week. If I don't have the scholarship, I may not go to school here.
I did a personal statement for CWRU, but frankly, I may as well have written "yadda, yadda, yadda". For admissions, I'm sorry, but I believe that 99% of the decision is LSAT and GPA. The other 1% is whether the guys on the admissions committee got laid last night or are sufferring indegestion from bad italian food they ate at lunch.
I feel like I have the beginnings of a great personal statement, but I just couldn't quite whip it all together at the end. Tried a few different tacks, but I really need a few more days to get this thing together. I think I covered 90% of the ground I need to for the scholarship committee, though.
Now, it's back to waiting. Even if I could just get a 50% scholarship, that would make a world of difference.
I guess we'll see.
