This weekend I posted a #thread about #PersonalStatements. It got a lot of attention- much of it good, some critical.

In the spirit of a #GrowthMindset I decided to lean in to the criticisms and try and improve it.

The content of the original #thread was true to my thoughts about the topic, but was written in a way that did not give proper context to the role of the PS in the process. It was also completely tone-deaf in that the voice I used was condescending and mean. And that is not me.
So I’m considering that thread what @ANNELAMOTT would call a #ShittyFirstDraft. The following draft incorporates feedback from the @Twitter #meded community into something I hope is a bit more useful (and a lot more friendly).

It’s Personal Statement Season!

I help review med student statements and have a few thoughts to share to hopefully help students/faculty along the way.

Its a thread.

πŸ‘‰awesome PDs can chime in @carolinemilneMD @abbyCCim @CincyIM @AmyOxentenkoMD
1⃣Big Picture
The personal statement is an opportunity to weave together
* highlights from CV
* experiences
* personal attributes
Into a cohesive story that explains
- Why you are going into IM
- What you can bring to a program
#IM_PSTips
2⃣ To start, find your PS from your Med School Application

- Think about how you have grown since then...
- What experiences in med school helped you grow into the prepared student you are now ready for residency?

β˜‘οΈ Write all of this down
