personal statement structure

guys do i have to click enter after each paragraph of my personal statement on UCAS? how should i lay it out. the ucas preview isnt useful because it still looks like a block im not sure what to do. I copied and pasted it from word ( which had paragraphs in it) but when i paste it, it comes as a block except each paragraph starts as a new line. theres no gap. and i dont have enough lines to physically do a line break.

How are you supposed to lay it out? will it just turn out as a block of writing otherwise? im scared?

Can you put in the spacing after you have pasted the text?

Best to reword some sections.

Then you need to reduce the content.

You would normally have about 3,400-3,600 characters to fit within the line limit and include blank lines between paragraphs
