I'm currently writing my personal statement. The version I've drafted focuses on clinical and volunteering experiences that pushed me towards medicine/doctor and I feel like the experiences answer the prompt well. However, I didn't mention research in the personal statement. Is this advised against?
I've seen many different takes on this question. Since we have two essays dedicated to why dual degree and significant research, I've been more under the impression that the personal statement doesn't necessarily need to mention of research (unless informative to why medicine). But maybe I'm wrong. fyi- I've done research in UG + current postbacc
Open to hear from anyone with knowledge about it. Thanks.
