The medical school personal statement is the only way you can speak directly to the admissions committee before any interview takes place. So what should you say? And, perhaps more importantly, what topics should you avoid? This event discusses how to convey your suitability while using every one of the 5300 characters to underscore your competencies.
This workshop walks you through the entire process, from highlighting the importance of fierce editing to touching on specific competencies that speak to your individual strengths.
