个人陈述
Many applicants spend a great deal of time working on and worrying about their personal statement. 然而,这可能是不必要的. Application selection committees do not expect personal statements to be literary masterpieces. They only expect you to emphasize your good qualities, 对自己的成就要诚实, 做你自己. Most personal statements are relatively similar in style and this traditional style is probably the easiest to use, unless you are an unusually gifted writer. It is acceptable to be general and your remarks can be tailored somewhat to the interest of the individual programs to which you are applying. To make the personal statement more relevant to the PGY-1 programs, you can simple add a sentence or two near the end of the statement about what you hope to gain from your PGY-1 experience.
You can create and upload to ERAS as many personal statements as you wish. This will allow you to tailor your personal statement to each program. 然而,这绝不是必要的. You may use the same personal statement for all programs. If you are applying for a PGY-2 specialty, you do not need to write a second and different personal statement slanted to your Preliminary program. They understand that you are simply "passing through" your internship on your way to the Specialty.
前ics to include in your personal statement:
- 专业选择的原因. You may wish to discuss a salient event that helped you choose your specialty, 如果有这样的事件.
- 你感兴趣的特产是什么?
- Skills and abilities you have which are valued by your specialty.
- Relevant experience (a balance of medical and personal examples), coursework, research activity.
- Personal and practice goals and objectives (long term, commitments). Many people like to talk about their long range goals in the specialty.
- Qualities you are seeking or desire in a residency program (some examples: outpatient care, 选课时间, 教学及研究机会).
- 你的独一无二. Personal interests, achievements, life experiences which make you unique. However, there is no need to reiterate everything that is in your curriculum vitae.
如何写个人陈述:
- 写清楚. Use simple rather than long and involved sentences. 改变句子的长度.
- Length: One or one and a half (double spaced) typewritten pages, 短, well-developed paragraphs (3 to 6 paragraphs).
- Skills and abilities you have which are valued by your specialty.
- 避免过度使用“我”. You should seldom, if ever, start your sentences with "I".
- Avoid mentioning lifestyle or monetary rewards as your major reason for choosing a specialty.
- Save your acting ability for the interview. 写作是为了被理解,而不是为了给人留下深刻印象.
- 以积极、“乐观”的陈述结束.
- Have someone critique your personal statement for grammar, spelling, and composition. 院长们会帮你的. (是的,你会写不止一次!)
- 修改和重写. Sharpen your skills; improvement is always possible.
- Avoid starting a paragraph about how you struggled through three years trying to figure out your chosen specialty. 每个人都有这样的经历.
