Do you need someone to assemble your personal statement, application essay, or supplemental application essays from the bare ideas or even the institution's prompts? I am very familiar with the characteristics necessary for an essay to stand out and be well received. From 1998 to 2007, I assisted physicians who were on the University of Minnesota Medical School admissions committee. Between 2004 and 2016, I reviewed 75-100 personal statements annually for a medical residency. Since launching my own freelancing business, I have written essays for many fields, including art, business administration, education, family studies, law, nursing, psychology, school counseling, social work, and several medical specialties for residency and fellowship applications. The $40 hourly rate in this quote covers all aspects of assembling an essay from the bare ideas, structure, and full editing. For the initial essay development, I will ask questions allowing me to tailor the content to you and your situation, ensuring that the end result truly represents you while avoiding a cliche or boilerplate feel. You will be asked to review the initial draft to verify accuracy before I ask any additional questions to enhance and focus your essay. My journalism background allows me to ask the right questions to do this efficiently. I prefer to do this part through e-mail so you only end up paying me to write for you, not for the time spent interviewing you. Personal statement writing usually takes 2-4 hours, depending on how readily I can get the information needed to construct this.
