Hey SDN,

I'm about to start writing my personal statement for the upcoming cycle and I was wondering if anyone had any advice or suggestions about anything they found helpful at getting their reasons for wanting to go to medical school onto paper.

Also, there is one school I have wanted to go to for a very long time. My stats are actually right where they should be, but maybe I should read their website and make sure to hit the big points they mention in their mission statement?

Thanks guys.

Don't make it so school specific that other schools will pass you by.
