Hi everyone,

I'm currently working on my personal statement. I was wondering if a dental student or a dentist would be willing to look over the opening of my personal statement and tell me if it has a cosmetic dentistry slant? I'm trying to avoid that completely, but I feel like that's the tone of my opening. If someone could please look over this for me, I would really appreciate it!

Thanks.

be careful who you share your pS w.

you dont want to have 2 personal statements that look the same going to same school.

no one here has experience. IF you are looking for people w/ experience I strongly suggest you go to your schools career development center or service. and ask for assistance. Going to my schools career development center made my ps 100folds better.

I started my personal statement with a paraphrase of a classic.
Goodbye cruel world, I'm leaving you today. Goodbye, all you people, There's nothing you can say To make me change my mind. Goodbye.

Alternatively, feel free the use the following
I want to go to dental school because I'm really interested in oral surgery. If I cannot be an Oral Surgeon then I will become an Orthodontist. Nothing can stop me. I am smart. I am motivated. I have fantastic handskills as I've been playing PS3 for almost three years without leaving my room.

Dang, that is the angle I'm taking! Way to ruin it.
