Which sentence 'SOUNDS BETTER'...? SENTENCE 1 or 2...?
Hi. I am thinking of including either sentence 1 or 2 in a law personal statement. Please suggest which sentence sounds better. Thanks.
***SENTENCE 1
"While working towards my LLB degree at the University of Leicester, I learned relevant legal reasoning skills which improved my ability to solve legal problems."
or
***SENTENCE 2
"While working towards my LLB degree at the University of Leicester, I learned relevant legal reasoning skills which helped me to solve legal problems."

I'm impressed with sentence one. It's short, sweet, and professional. The second sentence is good, however, it's a bit redundant in "legal,".
Goo luck in your law personal statement!

1 but dont repeat legal.
"While working towards my LLB degree at the University of Leicester, I learned relevant legal reasoning skills which HAS SIGNIFICANTLY improved my ability to solve PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE LAW."
sounds less repetitive imo, but its fine as is too!
Sentence 1 sounds more professional
sentence 1
sentence 1 but u should spell out LLB
I think sentence 2 sounds better. It is shorter and more direct.
Sentence one's ending is more in keeping with the flow of language used in the1st part.
