Medicine Personal Statement

Medical School Personal Statement Tutoring Overview:

If there’s one thing we can all appreciate, it’s that we all have different strengths. Helping you get into medical school or dental school is one of ours, and we start with our personal statement tutoring service. Each unique 1-to-1 session with one of our personal statement tutors is tailored to you and allows us to identify and develop any of your weak spots. One of our senior reviewers will guide you through each tricky step and help you avoid common pitfalls while using their experience and knowledge to highlight your achievements effectively. Each session is at least one hour and more sessions can be booked until you’re completely satisfied.

Do you need tutoring? Well, we recommend most students start with our Personal Statement Review Service: send us a draft and we comment and edit the draft line by line. For some, that’s enough. If we feel the personal statement has not improved enough after having already our detailed review, we recommend 1-to-1 tutoring for additional support. For some students, it’s difficult just to get the ball rolling. There are many things to consider, including appropriate content, structure, and how to connect your experiences in a relevant way to your medical school or dental school application. In a “getting started” tutoring session, you can expect a full content brainstorming session tailored to the schools of your choice and their marking scheme. We plan a strong structure around your content and help you get started – giving advice about what stories to share and how to reflect on them to impress the examiners and score maximum points.

If you aren’t sure whether your personal statement is ready or needs a detailed review & feedback, you can start with our free personal statement marking service. This is available a maximum of one time per student per year. Send us your personal statement and the name of the medical school of your choice, and we’ll give you a score using the marking scheme unique to that medical school.
