I am writing my personal statement and I have gotten feedback from a few people. One of these people is an admissions officer and they said it was great. My undergrad pre-med advisor, on the other hand, sent me a list of things to change. I have also had some other people look it and the responses seem to range heavily, minus some issues of flow which seems to be unanimously agreed on. I am a reapplicant and I am trying to write the "perfect statement" here but there just seems to be no consensus on these things. How did you guys decide who to trust for a final word? How many weeks did you spend writing/rewriting? How many different versions?
