Description:

Gaining admission to law, business, or medical school - as well as graduate school on the whole - is more competitive than ever. So how do you ensure that you have the edge over other applicants? One surefire way is to submit a thoughtfully crafted application essay or personal statement. It is through this personal statement that admissions officers gain insight into your personality and intellect. Good ones take time and preparation; bad ones may sabotage your chances for success. This one-of-a-kind book gives you valuable advice, including critical guidance on how to start, what to include, and what you should never say; dozens of examples of personal statements that worked at the most competitive schools; and what admissions directors at the top schools are looking for.
