Questions about the personal Statement

<li>Would it be ok to write two essays on the same sport?</li>
<li>Does the first essay have to be academically or can it be about a trip to costa rica where I learned about their culture and the eco-system </li>
</ol>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>bump bump bump</p>

<p>please help</p>

<p>Be careful if you do the costa rica essay b/c they dont want to hear “the people and culture were different… blah blah”… if you are majoring in a foreign language it might help to mention it but if you have done any research or any interships,etc. that may be something to consider also</p>

<li><p>I wouldn’t suggest it. Try to cover different parts of you in each essay.</p></li>
<li><p>Your choice. I wrote a personality trait: curiosity. Focus on what you get out of the Costa Rica experience, since that seems like what you want to write about.</p></li>
