Three Personal Statement Editing Mistakes to Avoid

Three Personal Statement Editing Mistakes to Avoid
A personal statement is one of the most important steps in college admissions. It is a statement by which students express their thoughts and ideas for their own personal growth and development. For many students, personal statement editing is the last thing they want to do before or during their college admissions process. This statement is a vital part of the college admissions process, and it sets the tone and direction for your college career. Therefore, one must not only work hard on writing a good personal statement, but also make sure it is done correctly.
One common mistake made by students is that they do not proofread their personal statement before submitting it. This mistake comes across as sloppy editing. If the applicant does not proofread his or her personal statement, it will come across as though the applicant was unable to write well and is irresponsible with his or her academic choices. Another mistake that applicants make is that they fail to ask for feedback from their teachers and / or professors. Feedback from professors is important, because the professor will know if the applicant is indeed serious about going after his or her dream. Furthermore, the professor will tell the applicant what mistakes he or she made and how to improve.
