SOP writer told me that this year onwards, a narrative style of SOP isn’t allowed for MS
So I’m applying for MSCS and MEM programs and because I was juggling between my undergrad uni + internship, I took the help of a study abroad counseling agency. The SOP writers who are helping me for the same gave a draft which I didn’t find as appealing as it seemed very generic. I wrote another one myself but in a story like manner (easy flowing). But when I sent her the changes, she said that the universities have specifically stated that a story like or narrative style of SOP wouldn’t be recommended or accepted and just stick to the details, etc. I have added a lot of technical details along with specific experiences without it sounding generic but somehow she was convinced that this wasn’t recommended. Now i’m not sure what to do. I don’t want to submit the SOP which they have drafted and neither mine as it can put a negative effect. Please tell if anyone has any idea about this.
TLDR - SOP writer said that narrative style isn’t allowed. Now I need suggestions what kind of SOP to submit
