Hey everyone, I'm a new member but have been lurking around for some time now! I have recently applied to a school for the upcoming spring semester and would like to hear your thoughts on the personal statement I sent.

If anyone is interested, please pm me! They are rather long, so I suggest you have some tea or coffee handy 🙂 Thanks!
 
Send them my way. Private message me.
 
i actually have read / edited a bunch of my friends grad school / med school personal statements so i'd be willing to take a look at it. just message me if you want.
 
I'm willing to be another set of eyes... feel free to PM them to me.
 
me too! pm it to me
 
It's great that so many forum members want to help you out with that PS danbread, but again be weary about who you send your work out to. If you have made some trusted contacts through this site that's one thing, but I don't find it wise to just send it out to whoever responds to this thread.


I personally would advise you to find a trusted professor, coworker or family member (or someone who you know in real life).

Also, if you have already applied what exactly is the point of sending it to people you don't really know? It would be too late to change anything in it at this point (even if their critiques could have proven useful).

Am I the only one who finds this sharing of PS to be ill-advised?

no you're not the only one...i don't think i would send mine out because 1. it's probably not that great, and 2. i don't trust the internet with my own personal information. i might just be overly paranoid, but i don't think it's a good idea to send out one's PS into cyberspace.
