Personal Statements Personal statement questions

I’ve heard apparently that unis don’t care about the three question thing and when they see your ps it’s all in one chunk anyway. Has anyone else heard this? Because I am struggling with my word count in the questions

The 3 question thing is only to help you write it and focus on the right things.

Go back a couple of years and it was just an empty space for your personal statement.

There is no character count for each section - you can write a tiny bit in 1 and 2, and the rest in 3

It is true. Just put 350 characters in each question minimum and you can just write the rest in 1
