what did u write about? just wondering?

i feel like i can write my personal statement in three paragraphs.
 
My personal statement was 670 words. It seemed to take it fine, but I guess I really just lucked out.
 
wow MSZ, .... GREAT stats.... how did you stay as a bio and chem major with almost a 4.0???
 
I guess from last year they realized there way more applicants to choose from so the admission comittee probably told them the hell with all that writing we dun want to read all that bs so shorten it.

yeah no kidding! I was told to keep mine concise. My first paragraph was: how my ****ty GPA doesn't mean that I'm goign to be a ****ty dentist because x x x. Second paragraph was: I'm better than the other peons applying because x x x.

short, sweet, to the point is always best. AACOMs aren't going to sit there and meticulously read every statement.

Thanks Comet :). I don't have an answer to your question though. I tried to balance out every term academically, but I guess most of it boiled down to hard work.

My name is Ian Wright, and I am an SDN addict.

It's basically a seven step program.
