Ucas personal statement formatting - medicine and dentistry

Hi,
Is it okay for my PS to look like a wall of text when i copy paste onto my draft ucas application? The line limit is 47 lines, that's exactly 4k characters with spaces. Will it impact my application? In which case I will need to lose valuable content as it will be 5 or 6 lines worth just for blank space
Help please!😢

Hi

It's funny you should say "wall of text", as that's exactly the wording @Interrobang uses in this excellent article. See the section 'How Does The Formatting Work?'

In short, do all you can to make your statement readable, because you want it to be read :wink:
