is that a big no no or is that ok? I wanna hear opinions (or maybe there like a rule on this that I haven't heard yet?
good luck to all on interview trail
 
I used my PM&R PS and changed the last paragraph. I changed it to say what kind of program I wanted to best prepare me for my future career. I also changed a few other lines, and eliminated one paragraph that was totally about PM&R. So far I have gotten several interviews with those changes.

good luck
 
When I applied, I wrote seperate essays, and the feedback I received from the prelim programs was positive. Considering that desirable prelim programs can be very competitive, I think it is worth the extra effort to write a seperate essay.

In general, they want to hear something about how while you can't learn all of medicine in one year, that a solid foundation in medicine is essential before beginning rehab
