You are responsible for preparing your own Statement of Purpose (SOP), as it should reflect your personal experiences, motivations, and goals. Guidance and feedback can be provided to help you structure and refine your SOP, but the content must be your own.

Letters of Recommendation (LORs) should be written by professors, academic advisors, or work supervisors who know your abilities well. You can share your resume and key achievements with them, but the letters should come directly from your recommenders to ensure authenticity.
