karebear12892 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 For those of you who have experience writing this personal statement - how long was your essay? My statement is about 420 words and I'm concerned that this may not be sufficiently long enough since it only takes up about half of the allocated space on the application. Any tips? Thank you!

Moderator LT_Oneal_PAC Posted April 11, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 11, 2015 Mine was a full page. That's about all I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caleb_jo Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 My PS was about 3/4s of a page. I believe as long as you hit major points of (why you want to be a Navy PA, how/what you will bring as a Naval Officer, and what the Navy's core values mean to you) you'll be fine :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakland132 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Mine was about 450 words which I think took the better part of a page. Be concise, don't fluff. If you can pull it off in less words do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
