تفاوت های Personal Statement و Statement of Purpose و محتوای لازمه برای قید در هرکدام :

The program might give you detailed instructions on what should be included in the statement or leave you to figure it out on your own with an enigmatic ‘Include a Personal Statement/Statement of Purpose’

1. Program only asks for a personal statement.
A personal statement gives you more leeway than a statement of purpose. However, this can also be more challenging in that you need to show your readiness for a graduate program both in terms of skills and character. The majority of the essay needs to be about your passion for your chosen field and why you have chosen to apply to a particular program. If you have space left over in the essay, you may want to write about an experience not directly related to your field, such as volunteer service. Even so, end the passage with a clear statement about how that experience has better prepared you for graduate studies.

2. Program only asks for a statement of purpose.

A statement of purpose should have a sharper focus than a personal statement. It should show that you have a strong sense of, well, purpose in applying to the program. In your statement of purpose, place the emphasis on all of the reasons that you are applying to graduate school. You may want to write about experiences directly related to the graduate program and go into detail about why you are choosing a specific program. Information about particular classes, professors whose work you admire or whose work aligns with your own research goals, and other factors like location of the school or internship opportunities should be included. Avoid writing about anything not directly related to the program. For example, if you are applying to a program in Materials Science, don’t start the essay with an anecdote about running a marathon or spend a paragraph writing about your experience volunteering at a homeless shelter.

3. Program asks for both a personal statement and a statement of purpose.

Seeing the request for both a ‘personal statement’ and a ‘statement of purpose’ can instill dread in the hearts of applicants. If this is the case, write your statement of purpose first to write about your research skills and experience, internships, and reasons for choosing the program. In your personal statement, you can go more into detail about the path you took to choosing your field, significant experiences not directly related to your field, and other aspects of your life that demonstrate your character and potential.

#Cover #Letter #vs #SOP
A #Cover #Letter serves the same purpose as if you were there to introduce yourself in person. Consider it is your first sales pitch. And in this case, you are selling yourself. More often than not, consciously or sub-consciously, the person viewing you mail would have already made an opinion about you, even before they look through your resume. It identifies your interest in the opportunity that you are seeking, whether it is a job or selection as a candidate for enrollment into an educational institution. A well written cover letter will intrigue the reader, portray your interest and knowledge about the company or institution, and prompt them to review the rest of your information. Similarly a shabbily written cover letter would just put a negative impression on their mind. Remember, a firm might be getting approximately 10-20 internship applications on a daily bases before vacations start. Even before they open your resume, your cover letter is what can give you the edge over other candidates. The best cover letters will be positive, upbeat, and professional. The biggest mistake any applicant can make, irrespective of whether you are applying for a job, an internship or a voluntary position, is to not have a cover letter.
#SOP
A #Statement #of #Purpose, on the other hand, is a short essay, usually about 2500 words in length. This is your opportunity to express who you are, and is a way for the admissions committee/ HR Department to screen hundreds of applications in order to select a few of the sharpest, most promising candidates. Your ability to portray your value to the institution, and society is a must. A SOP consists of who you are, your strengths and weaknesses and why you feel that you are the one for the job/internship.
You should be able to write about yourself in an earnest, systematic, organized and thorough manner; while portraying more professional aspects of your personality. Express your creative nature, only if creativity is a requirement for the job.
