This is the BEST personal statement I’ve analysed so far as part of the Personal Statement Masterclass I’m developing over at Skillshare. One course will be a Medicine Masterclass and the other an Oxbridge Masterclass covering a broad range of subjects from law and psychology to maths and engineering. #example #personalstatement #medicine

🎓Skillshare Personal Statement Masterclass

What's different about this course?
I'm not going to tell you what I think is going to work. I'm going to show you what does work.

What to expect?
For a lot of us, the personal statement is often the most important thing that we'll ever write. It's the thing that'll determine the next 4-6 years of our lives. So it's easy to see the importance of making sure it's the best it can be. And that's exactly what I'm going to be helping you with.
In the first few lessons, we're first going to be looking at the expertly designed 8 pillar framework based on personal statements of students who were accepted into Oxbridge and other top ranking universities. These 8 pillars will form the basis of you thought process and help you decide what to include in the personal statement.
We're going to spend some time learning how best to reflect on experiences in ways that show the reader that you are someone who is capable of extracting lessons and developing for the better as a result of it.
We're going to learn about strategies like the personality pillar and writing style to help your personal statement stand out and shine.
Importantly, we're going to be linking all this theory to carefully analysed real life examples from past successful personal statements.
Then once we've decided what to include, we're going to go through the structure.
We're going to be providing you with proven syntax and paragraph formulas that will ensure that every sentence you write has a purpose.
We'll also be learning how we structure the overall personal statement so that it flows beautifully and tells a story.
We'll also learn new strategies for cutting down your personal statement to fit the character count and how you can maximise what you say in the fewest words possible.
One of the biggest strengths of this video course, is that we provide 5 example personal statements each carefully broken down and analysed. And as each has come from students, now doctors, who have been accepted into Oxbridge and other top ranking unis, you can be confident that everything you learn has been tried, tested and shown to work every time.

The best thing to do is go to a place where you can reflect upon yourself quickly. That place is the shower, so I just brought my phone and opened up notes. I typed my first draft in one shower with how fast my thoughts spilled haha.

In medicine I see a purposeful and versatile vocation, yet what I love most is its fusion of a scientific core with a philanthropic heart.
Last year, y work experience at Dow University Hospital in Karachi was one of the most interesting yet exhausting experiences of my life and although it was both emotionally and physical draining, it installed in me a resolute desire to study and practice medicine.
Here, I was inspired by the altruistic concern of specialists who offered supererogatory reduced rate evening appointments for those in financial difficulty.
This left me to qualify in Basic Life Support and volunteer both at the Martlet’s Hospice and in a geriatric ward, where I feed patients, whist keeping them company. Although engaging with terminal ill and inform patients has shown me the reality of medicine, I feel that doctors hold a great privilege in supporting them and their families at such a difficult time.
Throughout my placements I have been able to empathise with patients and speak with doctors, developing my understanding of the importance of the holistic care that the multidisciplinary team provides.

At the Royal Sussex County Hospital, I witnessed a knee replacement and was captivated by the surgical precision in fixing the prosthesis. In addition, the surgeon’s patience when teaching trainees stressed the vital role of doctors as teachers; I decided to develop these skills by providing ICT lessons for the elderly.
I feel that the skills for communicating with a limited vocabulary are akin to the skills for explaining complex concepts, something I have learned through my study of AS Spanish this year.
At a GP practice I noticed how clear communication between primary and secondary care through detailed referral letters allows effective ongoing care. Moreover, I helped comfort children in a dedicated immunisation clinic, which impressed upon me the orle of a doctor to care for the whole community, not just the individual.
In Mukherjee’s “The Emperor of All Maladies”, the perseverance of individuals such as Sydney Farber in the development of the cure for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia inspired me to write an essay on the subject that won the school science essay prize.
I found this particularly interested as I analysed primary research papers for the first time.

Additionally, Mukherjee highlighted how randomized controlled trials underpin evidence-based medicine; for this reason, I took the initiative to study Further Maths in my spare time, covering statistical model crucial for medical research. I also took the Cambridge Chemistry Challenge and was ranked first nationally; I thoroughly enjoyed the residential camp where I learned more about pharmacology.
Furthermore, I regularly read the NEJM for articles on ethics and topical issues, leading me to organise debates under my elected role as Debating Secretary, which have developed my ability to take prudent decisions under pressure.
I therefore helped to resurrect the College Debating Society and have led my team to the Oxford Union School’s Debating National Finals. Outside my academic life, I find that music and tennis help me relax and I have been able to balance my preparation for a piano diploma and Gold Fuke of Edinburg with my pastoral role as a school prefect, allowing me to develop my prioritisation skills. Through my work experience I have realized that medicine can be a challenging job, demanding sacrifices; nevertheless, once given the opportunity, I know I have the motivation and capacity to succeed in this rewarding and intellectually fulfilling vocation.

The best way to learn something is learning it on your own don't waste your money and time on meaningless classes especially in the uk since you are actually on your own in the uk while you are student but paying some unfair amount of money that you don't know why you paid for.
