- In this video I discuss how to write your personal statement. I go through some big DOS and DONTS & reveal pieces of my own personal statement and it’s structure! I hope this is helpful! Feel free to leave any further questions below ~ Happy writing!
UPDATE: I am offering personal statement feedback. Email your inquiry to 20somethingconfidential@gmail.com
Peace be to you! I'm a new subscriber. I have been a Physician Assistant for twenty years. I still can't get over how competitive PA school has become!😰 You give great advice for the personal statement!😊✍🏻👍🏾👨🏾⚕️
Thank you so much Omar! That means a lot!!
The problem of retaking classes is that you have to pay for that out of pocket and its not cheap. I just finished my BS and didn't get great scores but still passed. I can't afford to take them over again so I'm stuck with the grades that I have. I work in the medical field as a paramedic in the ER and been doing this for over 15yrs. I hope that my experience and age can really set me apart from those who don't have the experience that I have. I just have to work on my personal statement and see if I can get an interview for PA school.
Hey Johnny . Have you considered working for a company that offers tuition assistant or reimbursement. Hopefully that can help you get on the path. No matter how long it takes the time will still pass. It’s worth a try
@@Poraharae I work for a big name hospital that has it's own university and I still can't get in there. I don't know what to do because my GPA will never let me be accepted. I have to find another way. Thank you.

Can you and nichole make a video about your personal stats, MA experience, etc. talking about your pre-PA journeys?
Mary Kate Caputo we have two videos now about our experience as MAs!! we talk about our journey to PA school in a few of our videos on the pre-PA playlist 💗 we def have more videos upcoming about this!
Hey Macy! Just came across your channel today and this video couldn't have been better timed since I'm starting to brainstorm how I want to write my personal statement in order to apply this cycle!! You and Nicole give such great advice for both personal life and healthcare related things and I just wanted to say keep it up! xo
Natalie K thanks so much Natalie! I hope this is super helpful for your writing!! Good luck this cycle!! I’m here to answer any questions you might have, as best I can! 💗
Hi!! I wondering how you guys got your jobs working as medical assistants? Did you find the position online on websites like Indeed? Thanks for the helpful videos!
Nirali Satasia Hii!! yes I found my position through applying online! I believe it was through Indeed actually!
Also, would you be willing to read my personal statement and give feedback? I am in my 2nd cycle of applying without interviews yet.
Mary Kate Caputo sure! you can share it on a google doc to 20somethingconfidential@gmail.com 💗
you're incredible!!
ilyyy ty!!! 💗
This is such an insightful video! I am finding it difficult to incorporate my theme throughout. How were you able to weave in the theme of dance when talking about your volunteer, clinical experiences, and overall throughout your personal statement?
just got back to you via email!!
Bookmarking this for later! Love your channel!!!
Kali Alexandria yay!! thank you 💗 I hope it’s helpful!! let us know if there’s any other vids you want to see!

Lucy Shippee hehe thanks luce💗
I just found your channel and it’s really helpful. I hope you guys are safe!!
Hey, dear .
Did u write this fir ur undergraduate
And nice advice video
Which bachelor degree u did and was how long before u did pa school.?
Just waiting on more PA application videos from you guys as this next cycle of application deadlines are approaching 😅
I love your videos. Can you please make a video about book, or just let me know, which books do you suggest reading? I don't know, if anyone said that to you before, but your English is beautiful and so broad.
Can you give me any ideas of what to maybe read and become more knowleadgable and increase my vocabulary?
Wow thats such a sweet comment! Thank you so much! My favorite novelist is Khaled Hosseini -- particularly Kite Runner & A Thousand Splendid Suns (really really sad though). I've made it a goal of mine to read as many literary classics as I can! Some of my favorites are A Catcher in the Rye, The Bell Jar, Great Expectations, A Farewell to Arms, & The Sun also Rises. A newer book that I read recently and loved is Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens !! Happy reading :)
@@TheTwentySomething Thank you very much for answering so quickly! You inspired me to read even more and I am hoping to improve my vocabulary. Thank you again! Can't wait for new videos from you, stay safe:)
How long was your statement..5000 words are a lot to write.
5000 characters**
mine was about at the word limit!
I wrote my personal statement for graduate school. I am a Junior in college. I have to write academic statement of purpose as well. 😭😭💔
Thal Lu getting a head start! that’s great!
@@TheTwentySomething Yes I know. I am also applying to research grants and other programs just incase I don't accepted into any graduate school.

Hi Macy! Thanks for sharing :)! Just curious to know how many pages your personal statement came up to
there is a set character limit to follow! Mine was under that limit
Shared this with my prePA friends about to apply this cycle! I agree with all of these tips so much. A lot of it overlaps with writing the personal statement for dental school
Haley Schultz thanks so much for sharing the video Haley! So glad you agree with the tips!! 💗
Great advice!!! Made me think what I can put into my letter.
Im so glad it was helpful! Best of luck with your applications! xo
