This document is used to persuade a person, team, or committee why you would be their best choice for a particular opportunity. Often required by academic institutions and teaching hospitals it is an incredibly important tool. Academic institutions require application information that is primarily factual. An admissions counselor, program director, or committee reads hundreds, if not thousands, of such documents each season. The documents contain personal information, academic standing, grades, GPA… information that after awhile begins to look the same… from one application to the next. The Personal Statement is the opportunity to color your world. The Personal Statement is your substitute… serving as you standing before a counselor or committee. The Personal Statement serves as a “tipping point”. You want to be certain that your Personal Statement is designed with the primary objective of creating a connection between you and the reader. It absolutely must stir certain emotions to establish the connection. A seasoned writer of Personal Statements knows how to “paint” you… how to “color” your circumstances.
