anyone have any thoughts on the personal statement when re-applying? I mean there are only so many ways to say why you want to go to medical school...

and completely new? can you repeat some of the stuff, especially if its pretty fundamental to your experiences and reasoning for going to medical school? do they view the previous statement comprehensively with the new one?

or is it perfectly fine to use the old one? i think i will call the admissions people at a few schools to see, but wanted to throw it out there to see if anyone had any advise or thoughts on the issue.
 
sorry, disregard this. just saw the other post about this...good information.
