Personal Statements

It's finally here the last post of the Fall semester. For all those who are about to take their finals we salute you. This last week Dr. Trask talked about personal statements (very important). Your personal statement and your application are going to be the only thing admission committees will see or know about you. Your personal statement is the thing that makes readers want to meet you, so you definitely do not want to half-ass it. Your personal statement needs to show not tell the reader who you are, what's unique about you, and why you want to be a doctor. The best advice I've heard is:

1. Start early: Get it done over the winter break and set it aside for later that way you have time to study for the MCAT, gather all the materials you'll need to interview with Dr. Trask, and submit your application.
2. Never settle with your first draft: How many people are satisfied with your first paper or topic
3. EDIT: friends/family first, then writing center, then Dr. Trask

Lastly thank you all who were involved with the club this semester we appreciate the dedication and if you guys have friends who are thinking about medicine bring 'em next semester, meetings for next semester I believe are Tuesday's at 12:30. Peace
