Thanks for your post. So, it would be wise to prepare one draft and change it according to the needs of the school, right?

I'm applying to some of the universities for the Fall of 2012 for my graduate studies. I have a question regarding personal statement. I need to know what's the difference between a SOP and a personal statement. SOme of the universities want SOP, while some ask for PS. What are the points to be excluded in a PS? Isn't the aim of both is to convey why one wants to study in the chosen field?

In my B.Sc, there is no research work in the curriculum and I didn't try also for outside chances. It was only in my Master's that I had lab work. As regards to publication, I hoping of getting only one from my master's project.

Hi, I recently took the GRE and got a score of 1150 (V:580; Q:570; AWA: 4.0). My TOEFL score is 110. I'm interested in applying for a Phd in cancer biology in the fall of 2012. But, I'm very much worried about my low quants score. I'm wondering if there is any chance at all for me to get an admission in the US. My marks in B.Sc is 84% and that in M.Sc is 7.1/10. I have six months of lab experience as part of my dissertation. Please comment on the possibilities of getting admitted in the US.
