Both extreme approaches have their own perils." This is according to Ritah Henrickson, media relations officer for personalstatementformedicalschool.com, the internet's leading provider of free medical school personal statement samples, writing guides and other free admissions resources.

There are many ways to write a medical school personal statement essay and the large majority of those differing methods lead to failure. "The truth is, there are certain open secrets for writing a compelling personal statement for medical school," said Henrickson.

According to Henrickson, "These may seem like common sense, but when put together with your personal biographic details and your grades and MCAT score, it can lead to some dramatic results." The secrets relate to essay formatting, essay organization and key tips to writing out key portions of your personal statement.
