2 Statements to upload

[Kitkat]

So with one of my applications, there are two seperate things that they want to see, as the same part. They break it up like this:

Statement 1: past research experience (length of up to 500 words)

Statement 2: proposed research interests (length of up to 500 words)

Has anyone else seen anything like this? Any suggestion on how to do this?

I don't think that it will be that hard to adjust what I have been writing other schools to adjust to this, and it gives me more space to talk about each one. But I feel like this is different then most SoP's that people ask for.
