In this video, I reveal how important the personal statement is and what topics would impress your applicant reviewers the most. There are certain key characteristics of applicants that residencies are looking for. Watch the whole video to find out what they are! And good luck in your last year of medical school!
ABOUT ME:
I'm Monica, an Internal Medicine attending at University of California, Los Angeles. I'm here to provide high-yield videos for medical students and residents. My favorite topics include how to succeed on clinical rotations, clinical skills, and some good old pathophysiology! I'm also obsessed with my cats and fitness, but I think there are enough cat and fitness videos out there...
