I've found some useful resources for writing a personal statement. But does anybody know where I might find a few examples? Would anybody be willing to let me read what they wrote?

Please don't turn this into a "wow, a little late to be doing your personal statement" thread. I recognized many others are well past this point. 🙂
 
I had a book titled "Essays that WILL get you into medical school" by Barrons...I found some really good ideas in the book--which had 40 actual essays and commentary from the authors of the esssays. Although I didn't read the whole thing, I brainstormed and came up with the idea of how I wanted to present my essay off of the book.

"Essays that will get you into Medical School on Amazon.com
