Another thread about writing. This time I apologize in advance and hope not to offend anyone regarding writing style.
Again, because many of you must be good writers so I post it here. A friend who is in a law school (not a 1st tier school, but nevertheless....) thinks it was worth it for her but.... when I looked at the samples of Essayedge's critique works, particularly that about a salon owner's sick child, I am not impressed. I thought they just rearranged the storylines a bit.
On the other hand, I may be the one out of touch. Is it in vogue to write tearjerker like that for med school now? Many books I have seen (not by Kaplans or Princeton) all demonstrate essay style like that, a life story.
I want to write briefly about my reason for medicine, then quickly move onto the broader perspective of my vision for medicine and health research forged by my experience.
If you can chip in your two cent, that'll be great. Thanks in advance.
