Does anyone know of a useful website or book that gives good tips on how to write a great Personal Statement for residency application ?

Iserson's guide to getting into a residency. Buy it today! It has personal statement, specialty choice, and interview advice. It's like $40-50 but totally worth it.

If you hit writers-block, visit Accepted.com. There are a few really good examples of personal statements. You have to read the one with the paraplegic from Africa, who got a 44 on his MCAT. Hilarious! By the way, it is a complete joke that is intended to make everyone say, "If that is my competition, holy ****!" 😎
