I think we've all seen these:
1) Anything more you want to say about yourself
2) Why do you want to go to ______, in particular?
For #1, should I take a more personal (other experiences not in my AMCAS, non-medical related stuff, academics, im a hard worker, etc. etc.) approach? I really don't know what else to write here!!
And how will you/ did you guys handle #2? I know a majority of us have never visited most of the schools, if any, that we are applying to. So what do you do... go to the school website and see "ooo they seem to focus on research... ooo that curriculum looks different... ooo its located in the city where all the action and murder is" stuff along those lines??
all i've really done is look up school stats and maybe seen a picture here and there.. it sucks that i've gotta come up with a song and dance for 80% of the schools!!!
any suggestions would be awesome
