So I decided to apply to grad school for my masters in early ed.

I have to hand in the application asap - but one problem. I have to write a 500 word essay explaining my objective for applying and I must include a brief personal statement.

Ok - I have obviously been out of school for way too long, I don't even know how to approach this. I feel like I have to make an impression with this essay to get in and being a stay at home mom has taken a toll on my brain -

does anyone have any advice - any essay examples...ANTYTHING?? I am kind of desperate here.
