Hello, I am relatively new to this forum so please do excuse me if this subject has been, or is currently being, thoroughly addressed in a separate thread. I was unable to locate it.
I am currently re-applying to medical school and want to re-use my personal statement from the previous cycle. The first time I applied my MCAT and GPA were rather embarrassing; therefore I doubt many, if any, admissions representatives even read my PS (I received zero interview invites).
I really like my PS I wrote from my previous application cycle and was hoping to re-use it with a few tweakings here and there. After asking around I keep getting opinion based responses from my peers. I was wondering if anyone knows for a fact as to whether re-using a personal statement is frowned upon or not?
