Personal Statement Line Screw up!

Hi

On UCAS when previewing my PS it has started a new line in the middle of a sentence, and so the line count shows 11 covering 2 lines!

Will this be ok when sent off, am worried it will look stupid!

Thanks for your help

Shows 11 what covering two lines?

Whatever your statement looks like in the preview it will look like in real life.

Mine looks screwed-up on preview too. The preview didn't look like that before sending it off though, so I think it's okay.

Yes line 11 covers 2 lines - Because it only has 2 words on it before a new line is started (which should not be has it should all be in one line)

mine does that, i think it will be ok. For me I bascially had a "free" line because it was like 1 line and 12words that counted as 1 line!

I'm afraid that when they see that there is a minor formatting error in your personal statement they will tear your application up in disgust. I'm really very sorry.
