UC Personal Statement 2011 Help

<p>Hello everyone, I need help with my personal statement. (having trouble starting it) Can anyone send an example of how they started their statement?> A brief outline would help as well! Thank you</p>

<p>goddd me tooo ;( my major essay was so easy, but this whole “whats so special about you?” essay…deadlyyy</p>

<p>@redoplease, howd you outline your major essay? im stuck on both :(</p>

<p>Redoplease’s steps to the major essay: 1. start out by talking about how/why ur interest in the major developed, 2. What experiences you have the field (if any. If you don’t then I would explain why you don’t), 3. Where you plan to go with ur major. Teaching? Astronaut? Etc.
good luck chuck!</p>

<p>can someone post their statments (people who are already at UC and people who are applying). I’m thinking of just going on some long tangent because I have no experiences and thus have to omit any mention of it.</p>

<p>i doubt anyone here is just going to post their personal statements…go to the personal statement forum thingy??</p>
