Re: PERSONAL STATEMENT??? radhamesramos - 06-11-08 16:59 I did it this year and a lot of people told me that it was a bad mistake, anyways my PS was not the best one out there, It could have been better. For making it better, I recommend you to pay to a professional service, it would help you a lot
