    I appreciate your honesty about not liking to write the personal statement. It's a tough convention and sometimes students question themselves or their worth when they get stuck on it. Your tips are super helpful and agreed on students getting help or at least another set of eyes in the editing process.

    So....the basic English Comp I and II "Argumentative" essay.
    I can always suggest anyone wanting to write anything that has powerful connection built into it go grab a copy of Donald Maass's "Writing 21st Century Fiction". He goes over structure and hooks and micro/macro tension in a way that most writers only dream of explaining things.
    That can be applied to non-fiction also.
    Your writing will go to a whole new level.

    Hey Dr. Cellini! I’m looking for some advise on my pre-med journey. My #1 choice of medical schools suggested I complete a licensure program like CNA, MA, or even EMT to gain valuable skills need for the medical field. Did you complete a licensure program pre-med? Do you suggest doing this, even if I currently work in a hospital setting, indirectly working with patients?

      Tbh guys, as a junior in college who is now prepping to apply, at your stage in your premed career, you are worried about the wrong thing, the thing that got the vast majority of people was not they applied and did not get in (like if they had a bad personal statement), it was that along the way, they were prevented from applying at all (bad grades, low MCAT, no experiences etc prevented them from being able to reasonably apply). What I would be doing if I could go back is I would start to establish ties in my community to try to set myself up for shadowing or volunteering later. That will be more useful than speculating on your story now, because your story has not happened yet. I say this bc I want to make sure you guys use your great drive most effectively.
