<p>Okay, thanks for the feedback. I guess I’ll go edit my essays a little more. However, I do know that Berkeley wants to see interest in those essays. I read their tips on how to write personal statement, and all of them say that you need to explain why you’re interested I’m your major, what you’ve done in relation to it, etc. I feel like I’ve done that pretty well - both my essays talk about my interest in math and comp sci, although from different angles.</p>
