I am having such a hard time starting my Personal Statement. I don't know where to begin...It would be so much help if I can review some sample essays. Can someone send me some examples of personal statements?

Hi,
I've also had a really hard time getting my personal statement how I want it. I would really appreciate seeing some sample essays! Or, if anyone is willing to read my essay, that would be a big help to!
Please email me: emn4996@yahoo dot com
 
If you don't mind, would you please send me some sample essays? Thanks a lot.

I think it would be more interesting for y'all to post your personal statements on this thread if y'all want people to read them and give their opinions on how to improve it. I think y'all would get more help on revising your essay if y'all did that. Plus, others who want to read sample essays can do that at the same time.

hi
I am new to this forum. I am applying for Pharm.D program for international pharmacist. can anyone pls help me with the personal questionnaire for western university? I will be very glad.
Thanks.
I'm extending the offer as well! 🙂

Here are the questions from this year's Western U. application:

1. What attracts you to a career in pharmacy? Is there an area of practice that particularly interests you?

2. Explain what you have done to prepare yourself as a future pharmacist.

3. If you are a reapplicant, explain what you have done in the past year to enhance your application.

4. Aside from becoming a pharmacist, what other professional and personal goals do you have? How do you plan to achieve them?

5. Identify one social problem in the US that is of great concern to you. What do you believe are some possible solutions?

6. Name an individual you admire greatly. Why?

7. What are your strongest and weakest personal characterisitics? How have these strength(s) and weakness(es) helped or hindered you in the achievement of your goals?

8. Have you worked during the school year? If so, how many hours per week? If admitted, do you plan or need to work while attending the School of Pharmacy? If so, how many hours per week?

9. Describe your participation in extra-curricular activities (campus and/or community) that you feel may enhance your application. Include all offices and other leadership positions held. If you have not participated, indicate why.

10. Describe some of your non-academic interests (e.g. recreational or athletic activities, hobbies, club participation, etc.)

11. Have you had any academic difficulties that may appear on your transcripts that you would like to explain?

12. Please use the space below to make any additional personal comments that you think will strengthen your application.
 
This isn't the place to get answers for your essays. Come up with your own answers like everyone else has. A lot of those are very personal so there's no point in us trying to help you anyways.
 
When I was applying to pharm school last year, I got lots of help from other SDNers with my personal statement. I just thought I would return the favor.
For those who will be applying to pharm school this year, feel free to pm me your personal statment for proof reading.
I also have some sample essays from other pharmacy students.
They can help you to get started.
🙂


Hello I am just beginning to write my personal statement and I have no idea where to begin. Would you mind sending me some of your sample essays.

That post was from early 2003! A quick look at their posting history shows that they haven't posted on these forums in nearly two years.

:laugh:
