PTCAS 2025-2026 Cycle, Personal Statement Help

[mxyzptlk]

Hey future DPTs!
I could really use your help as I work on crafting a standout personal statement.
Does anyone know if the 2024-2025 prompt—“Every applicant is unique in their own way, possessing individual qualities, abilities, and backgrounds. What unique traits will you bring to the physical therapy profession that will help you to be successful?”—is the same for 2025-2026?
Also, if you have any tips or resources for writing a personal statement that truly stands out, I’d love to hear them! Thanks!

PTCAS will officially open in June and we will find out then, but I am usually able to find out in the spring through the APTA if the prompt will change and what it will be. It changes every 2-3 years and the current one has been in place for 2 years, so it's 50/50 whether it will change next cycle.
