<p>So im applying to this summer program in New York and they want me to write a personal statement "describing academic preparation, personal interests, and motivation for participating in an intensive academic program"</p>
<p>What should I write about?/What exactly are they asking for?
Should I be creative and or just answer the question?</p>
<p>Also, I have thise one pretty good essay that wrote that works for almost any of these types of topics. But if I use that essay, and I later apply to this college and use that same essay (not exactly the same offcourse) do you think they will notice I used it twice?</p>
