How much importance is the personal statement? I've been plugging away at it so I don't have to do it last minute and it sounds OK, but it's not like there are good examples out there to compare to. Did anyone else have a resident read theirs? A buddy of mine last year had PlasticsMatch.com read through his, and he said that was really helpful but not sure I wanna spend the money. Thoughts?

I've been working on mine as well. One attending offered to give me suggestions on mine, and it was hugely helpful. I also asked another attending to read mine to get another person's perspective. I felt like it was helpful. I haven't shown it to any residents yet.

Just a follow-up...

So I used the PlasticsMatch personal statement editing service (google it) and it was an enormous help. These guys are professional, quick, seem to have a great understanding of the ins and outs of orthopedics and residency, and were a lot cheaper than a few other services I looked at. Anyway, something to think about if you're struggling or just need someone to proofread and give you feedback.

Glad to hear that someone else used PlasticsMatch. Saw this string and went with them too. Got the rush service and they had my essay back in 24 hours (they promise 2 business days FYI). Did an awesome job. It's obvious these guys know orthopedic surgey.

lol @ the plasticsmatch shills in this thread and on SDN. Do you really think the average ortho applicant can't see through your shameless spamming?
