Personal Statement Review

Your personal statement is considered, to most schools, the most important piece of your medical school application. It is the candidates opportunity to connect the dots of who they are for medical school admissions counselors to understand. An applicants chances of getting into a great medical school will diminish significantly with a poorly written personal statement. A great statement will give admissions counselors a strong understanding of why application want to pursue a career in medicine and what they have done so far to prepare for that journey.

We will aid candidates in highlighting the compelling parts of their journey, to help medical school admissions understand an applicant’s purpose. The Pre-Health Advisor Personal Statement Editing Service will help portray strengths, refine candidates writing voice, and maximize the chance for an interview offer.
