Cover Letter/Personal Statement
Cover Letters should be specific to the place you are applying to. You should include any achievements that will help you in your internship, skills you have (Including instrumentation you know how to use! Using specific names of internships shows your sophistication.), knowledge of the place you are applying to (such as a recent publication of the professor you want to work with), qualifications you have (such as being a minority, woman, etc.)
Personal Statements are a little more general, giving your goals and interests, what you think is important, and how this internship/research will help you. Be honest!
