Forum Members ~~~~~Official Personal Statement Guide and Reader List 2022-2023~~~~~

Moko · Feb 23, 2022

It's that time of year again! This thread is for applicants who are writing, revising, and polishing their personal statement for the 2022-2023 application cycle! Like in prior years, this thread will be self-regulated. When volunteering as a reader (or contacting a reader for assistance), please refer only to the most recent post for a list of our current available volunteers!

Other helpful resources: Official Personal Statement Guide thread, Alejandro's Personal Statement Advice, and Depakote's Personal Statement Guide/Tips.

If you are looking for feedback on your personal statement, it is better to directly message individual users here whose strengths are better suited to your needs rather than posting a response in this thread.

Once you contact a reader and they agree to read your personal statement, please make sure that your file has your SDN username in the title. Including your SDN username makes it easier for the readers to keep track of which applications they have already read. DO NOT JUST PM YOUR STATEMENT TO A READER unless otherwise specified.

Rules for Readers:

If you want to be added or deleted from this list, please make sure that you follow the directions below when doing so.
As a volunteer, you may read as many or as few personal statements as you'd like or have time for. If you will be unavailable for a certain time or have been inundated with requests, simply take yourself off of the list using the instructions below (either temporarily or permanently).
If you receive a request and are unable to fulfill it, please respond to the writer so he/she is not waiting for a response and can request help from elsewhere.
For your protection, we will not allow you to post your email addresses here. All email addresses will be edited out of the list and any further posts containing email addresses will be edited to remove them. Writers will contact you via PM and you can exchange files privately (via email, PM, Google Docs, etc.).
As this is strictly on a volunteer basis, absolutely NO solicitation of money for your services will be tolerated. Volunteers who violate this policy will be removed from the list and subject to further disciplinary action.
DO NOT share someone's PS with anyone else without the writer's permission

Instructions for Readers

To be added or deleted from this list, click "quote" on the most recent post.
Add your SDN username, your credentials, and specific things you are willing to edit for (content only, grammar only, etc.). DO NOT post your email address. If you are unsure of what to include, look at last year's thread for examples.
Delete the quote tags at both the top and the bottom.
If you are unable to read any more personal statements, please come back and move your name into the inactive list

Here are examples of what to include when volunteering as a reader:

FriendlySDNer | MD class of 2022, T20 school, will start family med residency in July | Interviewer and student AdCom member for one year. Will comment on grammar, content, theme, flow, anything you want. Will not be available after June 12 2022.
AnotherFriendlySDNer | Accepted student, MD class of 2026 | Non-traditional finance background | No formal editing experience, but have helped many friends with their essays | Can help with content, theme, etc. | Please PM a Google Docs link with 'suggestions on' and let me know if there's anything you want me to focus on.
SuperSDNer | future applicant | Writing tutor, Humanities major, and copy editor at my college's newsletter with a lot of experience writing/editing essays | can help with content, theme, grammar, etc. | Please PM as text or Google Docs link with 'suggestions on'

This thread is brought to you by the Pre-Allopathic Volunteer Staff
Please remember that these people are volunteering their time. Be nice to them!

Good luck! Please let us know if you have any questions!

As a follow-up:

To those of you who already have an acceptance in hand, congratulations! As you have no doubt experienced, this application process can be very nerve-wracking, particularly for those who fly in blind. Many of us are lucky to have mentors who invested in our success and volunteered their time to write recommendation(s) on our behalf. I certainly would not be where I am today without the advocacy, feedback, and generosity provided by my late mentor, and volunteers here on SDN. Unfortunately, many applicants lack such guidance, and do not have access to knowledgeable readers nor the financial means to hire a fancy consultant. For these individuals, any amount of feedback and guidance can make a huge difference and help prevent costly mistakes from being made.

Because of this, I am writing to humbly ask for your help! Please consider volunteering some of your time (even just one day!) to be a personal statement reader! Volunteering as a reader is a fun, stress-free, and meaningful way to 'pay it forward'. No prior editing and/or review experience is required! As successful applicants both past and present, this is something we are all qualified to do, by simple virtue of having been through this process and knowing what traits medical schools look for. In fact, at many schools, MS1's (i.e. you in just a few months time!) play a pivotal role in evaluating applicants! You are qualified!

Providing feedback can be as simple as qualitatively answering these five 'yes-no' questions:
1) Did I get a good sense of who you are as a person? Y/N
2) Did I get a good sense of why you are pursuing medicine and how you have tested this career choice? Y/N
3) Are you someone who I would want as my peer? Y/N
4) Is your personal statement easy to follow? Y/N
5) Did your personal statement show humility, maturity, genuineness, confidence, and avoid negativity? Y/N

Get 5 Yes's? Good to go! Otherwise, back to the drawing board. It's that simple! You will be surprised by how many applicants unknowingly fail to meet one or more of these criteria, and how quickly personal statements can turn around with this realization. So please consider volunteering if you can. Any amount of time will help. Thank you in advance for your consideration (and apologies for any direct recruitments!).

Sincerely,
- Moko

tl;dr: Please consider volunteering to be a reader. Your fellow students need your help and guidance!

And for applicants: it is better to submit a good and polished application in June/July than to submit a subpar and mediocre application in May. You can and should start prewriting secondaries during the verification period. If you utilize a reader for your application, please consider volunteering your time next year for future applicants!

I'd love to volunteer, but I'm only a pre-med applicant. I've got tons of editing/writing experience, though. Are you only looking for current accepted med students/physicians? @Moko

EDIT: I am not accepting personal statements right now because I'm very busy! I'll put my name on the list when I can. Thanks, everyone!
