Advice for my uc personal statement?

<p>I basically wrote about my life since kindergarten to high school and what I have learned through the ride. Someone told me that it is not a good topic and that I should start over . Is this a good topic or should I start over?</p>

<p>Overused topic. However as usual there is definitely potential. It all depends on how u depict it. Try focus on peculiar things that only happen to you and affect you skip out on unnecessary details.</p>

<p>Is writing about my first job a better topic?</p>

<p>or should I just write about my family?</p>

<p>It is difficult to cover your life from kindergarten to high school in several hundred words without being too generic. Your essay should be personal not generic, have depth not breadth. Focus to show who you really are.</p>

<p>I don’t want to write about my family because I think that topic is way overused, but should I just write about that?</p>

<p>Are you working on prompt 1 or prompt 2? What impression do you want to leave the app reader? How do you plan to achieve that?</p>

<p>The topic is important but how you go about writing it is more important.</p>

<p>im working on promt one. can I pm you my essay and can you give me feedback?</p>
