Hello,
I was recently accepted into a few schools, and things are going pretty well, and I'd like to help others who're looking for someone to read/critique their personal statements.
I also have a job as Institutional Review Board Member and Animal Care and Use Committee, at my job I do a lot of writing. I review/critique legally binding research documents,research protocol applications, and personal statements (for scholarships). So, I’ll try to use that experience, plus my own with my own personal statement I wrote last year on my blog. I think in August (when my first year of medschool starts) I’m going to post my own personal statement, as a temporary template. For now, I’m still going through the background check, so I’d prefer if my words didn’t come up as a “originality issue” until after I matriculate in August this year.
Here’s the deal:
I suppose you can find my writing samples http://doctororbust.wordpress.com/2...t-how-to-get-that-first-draft-6-simple-rules/
Good luck! And, if you're not interested in critiques then please don't slow down the talks about it please.

Here’s the deal:
- I will read and critique your personal statement.
- The dates of submission can start from now 3/19/14 until 4/15/14 (I’ll probably regret this later =) ).
- Because of time commitments, I can all do three rounds of feedback. So, the third round of feedback I send you will be the last, if a third is necessary at all. But, beware, I’m pretty critical, so if you don’t want an actual critique (or you feel you’re not ready) I can be pretty honest, but I try to be nice =).
- How to contact me – just email me at ruedjgtc(at symbol)gmail.com (sorry I don’t want bot spam). Be sure to title the email Personal Statement with First name only. I get a lot of emails each day, so it’ll get lost in the sea if you don’t label it.
- Or drop me a PM.
- And on my end, I promise to not share your personal statement, nor break confidentiality. I will delete your personal statement off of my machine no later than 7 days after we finish our last session (so, I’m sorry if you lose your PS, I won’t keep a copy).
- I will also make sure to have it back to you in a timely manner, say no more than 3 business days after I send you a receipt email to confirm I’ve gotten it.
