Difference Between SOP and LOM

Both SOP (Statement of Purpose) and LOM (Letter of Motivation) are important documents for university applications, but they serve different purposes:

• SOP: Focuses on your academic background, achievements, and why you chose the program/university.
• LOM: Focuses on your personal motivation, passion, and future goals.
• Key Difference: SOP is more academic/professional, LOM is more personal/motivational.
