NOTE: THIS IS FOR PRE-DENTS! Pre-med students, we will not be able to help you out much!
Hey guys! Time for a new thread 🙂
Here are some helpful links in regards to writing your PS:
**The Official Personal Statement Guide and PS Readers List **
To Premeds: General Advice on Personal Statements
Depakote's Personal Statement Guide/Tips
Just a few notes:
It may be helpful for you to include a bit of a background (ECs especially), so the reader knows a little more about you and can help go from generic -> personal
Contact the reader via PM to find the best way to share your PS-- Do NOT post your email address (or any other personal information) here.
Common ways are directly in a PM, via Word through emails/attachments, or Google Docs.
Reading PS's takes time, so give your readers a week or two to get back to you
Be sure to have multiple people look at your PS, including other readers and friends & family too!
Be wary of those applying this cycle- not to say everyone is out to get you and they're gunna copy your PS, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
Please only send the readers final drafts. They are busy and do not have hours to spend working through a PS with you. Please proofread your statement and send it to us for feedback regarding content/flow.
Readers:
If you would like to be added or deleted from the list, PM me! (And include any information you'd like users to know).
This is strictly on a volunteer basis, so do NOT ask for money or any other type of compensation. You will be removed & reported.
If you are unable to read/getting swamped/anything, please let any new requests know so that they aren't waiting on you, and let me know if you'd like to be taken off the list.
Do NOT share any part of a user's PS without their permission.
Readers available! (arranged by year, then school):
Not available. Please don't message these users about reading your PS!:

- If you have any issues, such as a reader not getting back to you timely or an applicant/reader being rude/harsh, please PM me! I'd like to know the issue and work towards solving it.
- Remember, if you'd like to be added, PM me or post here
PM the reader asking if they are available to read your PS! Do not post here, waiting for a reader to message you!! Do not also just send them your PS without asking!!
