[QUOTE="Romiras, post: 12406, member: 1993"] I think there are two approaches that have both been successful. For myself, I preferred to talk concisely (STAR / CAR structure) about 5 different points. I wanted the firm to get to see a wide range of things that I had going on. This included Society positions, academics, personal awards and a personal hobby. If you're able to write concisely, with every sentence bringing a new point or adding to a point, I'd encourage this approach. Also, if you have an impressive range of things to talk about, I'd also recommend this approach. The second approach is to take two to three key experiences or things you want to talk about and really do a deep dive into those examples. This works particularly well if you have a 'unique' or uncommon experience that has a lot to unpack. If the application is the same as the one I've completed in the past, which was basically 600 words to tell Clifford Chance about you, then you absolutely do not need to talk about why you are pursing a career in law or why you are interested in Clifford Chance.
