Almost done w/my PhD application!
All that's left is stuffing envelopes for the recommendations and the applicant statement. It's hard to get the right tone of humility while promoting professional accomplishments. Here's what it's supposed to express:

In your applicant statement, please discuss your past education and experience, academic and professional plans, and reasons for wishing to undertake graduate work. Include some details about intended specialization in your field, your preparation for that specialization, and anything else you consider important for a judgment of your abilities (including articles, theses, books, any other material published, any invention patented; academic honors, prizes, honorary scholarships; reasons for transferring from one institution to another; etc.).
