Srs? You are committing your life to podiatry. You can't think of why you would want to do that? Honestly, tonight, go outside and just go for a walk. Walk and think for like 2 hours and think very critically about why you are applying, and I guarantee you by the time you get home from your 2 hour walk you will have a PS ready to write. Questions to ask yourself: why in the world do you want to do podiatry vs...dentistry/md/do/stampmaking/optometry/baking/cleaning/construction. Who turned you on to the idea? Do you think you'll be a good podiatrist? Why? Where do you see yourself going in your career? Are you particularly interested in disease conditions related to podiatry like obesity and diabetes?

I would love to help you and you can PM me, but for your own sake, take that 2 hour walk tonight and outline your ideas. Or choose a different field (srs).
 
Yeah I would agree with BCAA. If you have not figured out why podiatry then this is not a field for you. Even if MD/DO/DDS etc were your orginal plan and DPM is plan B you still have think of why DPM is a good alternative.

You do not have to write it overnight. Collect ideas, put them into an outline, then start to connect the dots more and more, and eventually you will have a coherent essay.
By the way when you do get in you are going have to do this all over again pretty much with residency, so it is probably a skill worth learning.
