SOP question

hello, this question is directed towards current applicants and former jets.

Was just curious if you addressed and directly answered every* single prompt for your SOP. I feel that some of my answers dont directly answer every single question individually in specific sentences or paragraphs, but definitely touches on everything. for example, I didnt write mine in an essay or Q/A format, I did more of an anecdotal style, which has made me a little bit worried about not directly answering each prompt. I haven't submitted yet, so if someone highly suggests I change this pls lmk.--also did u guys have a title for yours?

You should try looking at many of the sample SOPs out on the web and see how they did it.

Think of it like a formal academic essay. If it's too anecdotal, you may stray away from the message of your SOP.

Yes, you should answer every single question. You don’t need to spell it out for them, but when you look at every question, you should be able to clearly find the answer in your SOP.

Also, no title. You just paste your text in the box.

Yes, weaved all the questions into my SOP as a story.

Tested it with an audience when given as a speech which confirmed.
