 A must! January 17, 2010
Gina Jetter (San Antonio, TX)
This book is a must for those applying for medical school and residency. It has sample Resumes and Personal Statements that helped me write mine. I recommend this to any college student or medical students I know going through the application process.

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 ! August 15, 2005

I am a prospective med-school student in the application process. I have been to several bookstores, online sites, and my own college's health professions office. No guide, book, or handout has even a fraction of the depth and clarity in this book. This book guides the reader step by step towards a great resume and personal statement in a structured, workbook-like format. This strategy was particularly helpful when I wrote my personal statement. The author's years of experience shine through in the motivational and preperatory statements designed to ease the student through the stressful process. Dr. Tysinger's methods are unique and thorough, and more than just a compilation of pre-fabricated examples. I am confident my personal statement addresses issues and qualities med schools are concerned with in a fluid and easily understandable manner. This guide is one of a kind for healthcare applicants.
