I'm currently applying to a few reu's and all of them ask for a personnel statement. Most ask for a statement of purpose (why i want to go to an reu) and my goals for the future.
My question is what is exactly i should concentrate on. Should I concentrate on why i want to go reu's in general or should i address why i am interested in each reu's specific research.
When asked about my mathematical background, should i focus on my prior math knowledge or what?
Any guidance is appreciated. I have a lot to say, but I'm not sure what they're looking for.
Thanks in advance
