I am on my 24th incarnation of my PS. Some are revisions, but all in all, I have gutted it about 10 times. I think number 24 is a winner though, thank god. I was beginning to get tunnel vision after the first 20........
I personally think that 2 pages is just not enough to talk about what I need to. Hell, why not just cut it to a paragraph if they are so concerned with length. I can see it now....'I am awesome. I am the smartest person in the world. I love law. Let me in. P.S. give me a scholarship....'
