Writing a winning personal statement is one of the most important part of residency application. I have seen people with great USMLE scores but a poorly written personal statement with only a handful of interviews while people with average or above average scores with good personal statements who got upwards of 20 interviews.
You may want to take a look at sample personal statements in order to get some idea. You can find a few personal statements at Residentscafe.com (http://www.residentscafe.com) and at a few other websites. Start writing your personal statement early since it takes awhile for it to evolve! Write a great personal statement that will catch the attention of the busy PD and secretary! Good luck!
