If anyone can read over my personal statement just to look for grammatical errors or whatnot i would really appreciate it. Just tell me how you want me to send it to you (PM, E-mail.)

thanks!

Hate to break it to ya...but these people are probably just wanting to read someone else's personal statemnt...as opposed to honestly trying to help you...but whatever

Speak for yourself, please. I wouldn't offer to help if I didn't mean it sincerely.

Yeah, I already submitted, it's not like I can change my ps now. SDNers helped me out on mine, so I wanted to help, too.
 
people on this forum are so cynical. Thanks everyone for offering to help. I just e-submitted.

Ahh, relief! lol

yes, relief is definitely one of the feelings..but then there's also the pain of the fees. $1035. OUCH. 😱

I was wondering how long it would take someone to say that. I do in part believe what you mean though.

Just write it and have someone who does this type of stuff for living like English professors preferably who don't know you. So in the process, they can get to know you FROM the statement and tell you what you are lacking or incoherent in the statement.

i think this is one of the best ways to go. after my english prof read my PS, he suggested i rewrite the whole thing. i'm really glad i did. it's a good way to test the waters and see how a prof would respond to your PS.
 
I wrote it, had two of my professors make suggestions, rewrote it, sent it to my school's writing center, made adjustments, had my english major friend read it, made more suggestions, got a few ppl already accepted to dental school read/correct and then i sent it in. I think i'm in the clear. If someone really needs to steal someone else's personal statement i think they have bigger things they need to be worrying about. Why would someone need to steal someone else's words for why THEy want to be a dentist? My personal statement could not even apply to anyone but myself.

It's just ridiculous.
