Residency application personal statement is one
of the most difficult paper students have to
write.
5
The first of the reasons is that they have to
write them on their own and show why they want to
apply to this program, why they chase this
subject and what future they predict for their
selves.
6
If you stuck with writing your personal
statement, you may get orthopedics personal
statement help.
7
Letters of recommendation The most critical part
of preparing this type of documents, who is going
to write them. It should be someone who has
worked with you on your research projects, so
its better to start forming relationships early.
8
So you have to provide them with the background
information (your goals, for example) and your
curriculum vitae.

Residency Interview Process Residency Selection
Committee reviews only those applications that
are complete and invites them for an interview.
And here again your personal statement plays the
main role.
10
Because if it was really interesting and
committee saw things they like, they will invite
you for sure.
11
Things committee pays attention in your personal
statement Your own style. Do not try to seem so
artistic or so smart. Be you and show your
passions.
12
Good introduction is one of the most important
parts. Beginning of your personal statement is
only one change to grad committees attention
because if they dont like it at the first look,
they may not even read it. Its always a good
idea to start with a story which show how you
come to the decision to be a part of big medical
team.
13
Dont try to tell, always show. Its better not
to tell how good you are and why you deserve it
but show facts, experience and ideas.
14
Speak about future. Yes, you cant predict it but
you may tell that you think over what you want
and where you should go, how to want to grow and
show possible ways for it.
15
One page long. Do not try to make your personal
statement too long, nobody is going to read it.
One page is enough to describe everything you
want.
16
Error free document. Remember even the best
personal statement will be bad if there are any
grammar mistakes or typos. So check, edit,
proofread, polish, reread and check again. If you
are not so attentive, ask somebody to have a
fresh look.
