Hi everyone!
It's THAT time of year. I've written a personalized statement to my top choice program that totals 820 words (is this too long?). Would any residents or dental professionals be interested in reading it to see if it's acceptable?
I'm worried because I gave it to the writing center at my school today who commented that my statement is "not personal" enough and "does not include specific patient experiences". She told me it sounded like I was boasting about my resume (which is my greatest fear!). I tried to be really genuine in my statement about my motivations, but now I'm anxious. Any takers?
