Ok, so I have finished writing my DO school PS but I have gotten mixed reviews from it. I was wondering if someone could volunteer and read it for me. Thanks.

i had a questions about the DO PS. Do we have to elaborate in it why we chose DO over MD or should i just write about why i want to become a doc? because i wanted to use the same PS that i have for my MD schools. Please tell someone?
 
Jules, send me a PM and I will be willing to read it too. As one that has gotten some good advice from people on here and from friends, I think I got a decent handle on what they are looking for. So send it on to me and I can offer my suggestions.
