I am a college admissions mentor at ReadyEdgeGo, and my team specializes in personal statements. While there is no one formula for a personal statement, here are a few common ingredients that we have seen over the past 5 years of helping students:
1. Answer the prompt completely. Make sure you identify each section of a prompt and answer them in your response.
2. Don't laundry list your accomplishments. You have enough room to do this elsewhere in the extracurricular and activities section
3. What do you want the reader to remember about you? Too often, students write about too many characteristics or experiences, that they lose focus. The reader ends up not remembering anything!
Feel free to shoot additional questions to ReadyEdgeGo. My team and I all have experience helping medical students perfect their statements, and we offer personalized and really affordable help, so check us out!
