Get into Medical School - Write the Perfect Personal Statement: Effective Techniques & Over 100 Examples of Real Successful Personal Statements Review: Very sensible and helpful advice that is succinct and related in down to earth language. The first part of the book provides general guidelines for writing your personal statement and structuring it appropriately. These are helpful and a lot of the advice is common sense but it is still good to have it retold. The bulk of the book is full of actual personal statements that students have successfully applied and been accepted into medical schools with. These are then further split into two sections. The first selection of personal statements are all followed by a critique of their positive and negative attributes and suggestions for improvement. I found the analysis and breakdown of the statements very helpful. By the time a student has gathered all their information together and are ready to start writing their statement they invariably find that they have too much. The analysis of statements in this book helped by helping you become more critical or ruthless when it comes to getting the word count down e.g. remove flowery language, don't be verbose, does that sentence actually tell the medical admissions officer anything about the applicant? There is also information as to which medical schools accepted that particular statement which is interesting as I didn't realize that it can help to tailor your statement to particular medical schools; as some place a greater emphasis on academics while others may play greater importance on evidence of a wide range of experiences. The latter half of the book has more examples of personal statements but these are not critiqued. I enjoyed reading the book. It goes without saying that all medical applicants are invariably bright, have similar experiences, skills and interests so the challenge is how can you stand out from the crowd? This book offers plenty of examples and suggestions. Review: I bought this book for my daughter to help her to apply for medical school, my daughter says that the book had helped her to write the perfect personal statement which she received 4 university interviews and she also got an offer. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #3,733,696 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #18,975 in Study Guides (Books) #122,971 in Medical Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (228) | | Dimensions | 5.83 x 0.66 x 8.23 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1905812108 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1905812103 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 290 pages | | Publication date | April 30, 2016 | | Publisher | ISC Medical | ## Images ![Get into Medical School - Write the Perfect Personal Statement: Effective Techniques & Over 100 Examples of Real Successful Personal Statements - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61c7bYEDFXL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***S on November 25, 2016* Very sensible and helpful advice that is succinct and related in down to earth language.

I had tried many times to write one but I had no idea where to begin and what to put in it. This book had a 100 examples of personal statements to read and they help you to formulate new ideas and give you ways to put your words down on the page. It even takes you step by step through writing it which I thought was really useful. I got the first draft written pretty quickly with this book and I my personal statement turned out really well, it flowed nicely, had structure and was well written even though I wasn't confident with it's content. This even book helped me to say my work experience, extra curriculars and such in a way to make it sound more impressive which is good. Unfortunately I cannot comment on how successful I was with said personal statement because in the end I decided not to do medicine - sorry! I do think I would have done quite well with it if I had applied though and so would recommend this. ## Frequently Bought Together - Get into Medical School - Write the perfect personal statement: Effective techniques & over 100 examples of real successful personal statements (UCAS Medicine) - Medical School Interviews (2nd Edition).
