All of us strive to make our SOP the best of the best because we all want it to be the greatest.
All of us strive to make our
SOP the best of the best because we all want it to be the greatest. However, it
is not necessary that all our efforts pay off. Hard work is essential, but
smart work has its own benefits. It is preferable to consider avoiding
the following errors when creating a SOP:
1. Talking
too much about your childhood fantasies
2. Not
giving it enough time
3. Beating
around the bush and not paying attention to career goals
4. Not
taking a second opinion
5. Taking
too much external help
6. Not
carrying out your research
7. Writing
more or less than the needed (not understanding the value of space and word
limit)
8. Being
too direct or too casual in the beginning and conclusion
9. Using
jargon or technical terms more often.
