Ask HN: How to write a Top Grad School Personal Statement - Tzeentch99

I'm in the process of applying to grad school. Are there any specific sites or resources you'd recommend for how to write a top grad school essay?<p>Also any tips from the community would be appreciated.

Assuming you're going into a research program (MSc, PhD) rather than a
professional program (MBA, MD, LLB): Focus on research. Admissions decisions
at the graduate level are almost always made by individual departments, and
the top-of-mind question for the person reading your submission will be "could
this be a future co-author?"
