Medicine Personal Statement

Struggling with writing my personal statement for applying to study medicine...
Any tips, good ways of starting off etc and good examples other than those which are posted on the student room. Would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you :smile:
I found it easier to write a really long first draft that has everything you have done on it and don't worry about phrasing or anything. The start to cut down and re word stuff. This way you get started and don't miss out on anything you might want to add.

Thank you for your help! Good idea :smile: Was just wondering are you studying medicine at the moment and which year and uni? How is it, if so?
