UIUC Meng ECE Academic SOP Vs PS

UIUC ECE 的网申要求申请者提交 Academic Statement of Purpose and Personal Statement 两种 statements, 但是楼主对于这两个 statements 不能很好的区分，感觉两种 statements 讲的东西有很多重复的内容。网申界面上是这么描述的：
Academic Statement of Purpose

Please use the Academic Statement of Purpose to describe (within 1000 words): (1) the substantive scholarly questions you are interested in exploring in graduate study, (2) your academic background, intellectual interests, and any training, research, or other experiences that have prepared you for graduate study, (3) how our program would help you achieve your intellectual goals, (4) any specific faculty members, if applicable, whose research interests align with your own interests, and (5) your professional goals.

Personal Statement
Please use the Personal Statement to describe (within 500 words) how your personal background and experiences influenced your decision to pursue a graduate degree. Provide insight on your potential to contribute to a community of inclusion, belonging, and respect in which scholars with diverse backgrounds, perspectives, abilities, and experiences can learn and collaborate productively and positively together.

现阶段的理解是：前者偏学术，传统的写法就可(Why School, Research/Intership Experience, Future Goal 等等)；后者偏个人心路历程，可以写的故事性一点。想请教下大家还有其他建议嘛？
