OK book, but does not worth buying

I bought this book to try and improve my personal statement for residency application. This book is straightforward, but it is too simple. You will not find any majic formulas or great examples. The examples that are there - are VERY VERY classic and long unappreciated by the RD's.

I am sorry to tell this to the author but the usual "I saw a physician saving little boy's life" or "I delivered clafs when I was 5 and that is why i want to become a OB/GYN" are no longer working succesfully to get interview. If you need examples - surf the web and then WRITE YOUR OWN PS.

ON a separate note: I thing I did agree with the author is that the use of the online automated services is probable not the best option to go thru, so the answer is (I think) better write your ow - even if it is not perfect - you can FEEL that the person wrote it, that it is not unpersonal" statement.

An excellent book !

I loved it because of its comprehensive topics, helful tips and practical approach. I wishh all the best for dear Dr. Tysinger, the editor of this state of art !
