Hello everyone. I am currently applying for my Psy.D in clinical psychology, and I am having problems with one particular question that relates to a personal statement. The question is below:
"please give us a specific selfappraisal of your strengths, weaknesses, and the personal qualities that you believe will contribute to your success in your chosen field of study. Include those personal characteristics that you anticipate will need development in your education and training."
In all honesty, I don't even know where to begin. I can write about my strengths, but the part that I am stuck on is where they want me to write about my weaknesses and characteristics that will need development in my education and training.
Don't get me wrong, I have many flaws , I just don't know how to relate it in the personal statement.
Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated.
