[QUOTE="TakeAChanceOnMe, post: 154696, member: 27789"] I recently finished my CC application and was ready to submit it. However, feedback from friends suggests (and I agree) that it now reads quite densely, abruptly, and heavily from the start. I am (of course) absolutely maxed out at 500 words and have tightened the wording so much that it is pretty intense reading. It lacks connection and beauty now, perhaps. A friend suggests that while she doesn't know about this law firm application stuff, a human being reading about another human would like it softer and less abrupt. Would you recommend using an introductory sentence like 'my experiences have ranged from...ABC to XYZ... and have equipped me to be a CC lawyer because... ' ?? Or is this too generic and unnecessary; therefore, I should just jump straight to the experience and results? [/QUOTE]
