PERSONAL STATEMENT EDITING

Price range: $175.00 through $400.00

Are you procrastinating writing your statement?  Staring at your computer thinking “I don’t know how to write about myself!”  Does your statement contain standard phrases like “I want to be a Physician Assistant because I want to help people”, “team/teamwork”, “collaboration”, “I want to work with the underserved”, “lateral mobility/flexibility of the profession” and “solidified”?  Have you read or been told that you need to write a story?  If any of this applies or you, or you just want help so your statement doesn’t sound like every other applicant, let our Physician Assistant Mentors help you stand out from the rest.

Your Personal Statement will account for 40% – 60% of a PA Programs decision to grant you an invitation for an interview.  This most recent cycle we worked with a re-applicant who had a GPA of 3.94 and she never even got an interview in the previous cycle.  When we reviewed her previous CASPA application we realized it was all because of her Personal Statement.  We helped her with her Personal Statement, and she was accepted into two PA Programs this cycle.  When writing something, it always sounds good to you.  Or maybe you have a friend read it and they confirm your own feelings.  But what you really need is someone unbiased and actually working as a Physician Assistant with admissions board experience to give your statement an honest look.

Most applicants get tips about what they think needs to be in the statement from the same sources and invariably, they all tend to sound alike at the admissions board.  You need your statement to stand out from the rest.  At PA Mentor, your Personal Statement will be reviewed and edited by a practicing Physician Assistant with years of experience editing.  Besides the basics of grammar and spelling, our Mentors will give you direct feedback on the content of your statement and let you know if what you are writing is good or if you need to make changes.

Just select the Editing Plan best for you.  Standard editing turnaround time is 48 hours or less.  Choose from one of the following plans:

Basic Editing BASIC EDITING

  • We start with the Personal Statement Workshop via Zoom (30 – 45 mins) to find out what your story should be about.  Do not send a draft until we have conducted the interview.
  • After the interview, you’ll submit a draft and we will provide a comprehensive written edit.  There will be a follow-up Zoom call to discuss our comments and suggestions for any changes.  Turn around time is less than 48 hours.
  • No more than 5,000 characters (including spaces).  If your statement draft is over 5,000 characters, you will need to make cuts before submitting to us.
  • No Supplemental Essay Editing

$175

 

PREMIUM EDITING

  • Like the Basic Plan, it starts with the Personal Statement Workshop via Zoom to brainstorm your story (do not prepare a draft before the interview).
  • Two Comprehensive Edits
  • No more than 5,000 characters (including spaces).  If your statement draft is over 5,000 characters, you will need to make cuts before submitting to us.
  • Edits will be reviewed via Zoom call.
  • Supplemental Essay Edits – We will discuss via Zoom call and provide one edit of all essays (up to FOUR PA Programs).  All drafts must be within the character/word limitations per the individual program.

This is a very personalized service where you will work one-on-one with a practicing PA with admissions board experience.  We will conduct a mini-interview to determine what the content of your statement should be about and help you formulate it through multiple edits and Zoom calls.

Additionally, in this plan, we will help you edit your Supplemental Essays.  This plan is usually sufficient for those applying to 2 to 4 PA Programs.
