Default Read my PS!

SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
I'll be applying to pharm school this year and need some help on my personal statement. I have a very lackluster statement so far and would love for some SDN veterans to give me some CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. I feel it's very generic and can't find a way to make it brief and effective. I can email/pm my statement... just let me know!


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Some reason I felt like there was a Megathread by SDN mods dedicated for proofreading PSs. Can't find it anymore. hmmmm

Historicly we start a new one every year, then retire it once application season is over. I wonder if it is time for the new one?

Yeah that would be much appreciated. I feel like I need more than just me and my friends reading my PS. I need actual Prepharmers and pharmers

That's what I thought too (I found the thread for last application cycle, but didn't know if I could post there). I supposed they haven't started one yet? I have followed the forum for a couple of years now, but just recently created a profile so I'm still a somewhat newbie here. If you guys do find the megathread for proofreading, please post the link here! =)

These things take time. For now, feel free to shot me a PM and I will try to offer what feedback I can.
