Re: personal statement InSitu - 09-14-08 22:11 As far as I know from last year..yes you can. But you must add it before its downloaded by the program.

Re: personal statement drdoctor - 09-15-08 03:58 As per ERAS rules this year, you cannot.
You must preview the PS and submit it before assigning it to Programs.
If you need to make a change in it, then CREATE a new PS.
Then DE-ASSIGN the original PS and ASSIGN the new PS to the Program.
If they ve already downloaded ur PS then they may not look at the new one.
So make the change FAST.

Don't change a thing.
Don't change a thing.
Why not? If th statement is bad it must be replaced asap. Otherwise your luck is over. The statement can make you or break you.

Re: personal statement docraj - 11-16-08 01:16 Before you submit your PS why don't you have it professionally edited? You may spend some money but at least it will be a well drafted version.

Re: personal statement sackatdoc - 12-02-08 10:16 personal statement is one of the attachments that one needs to do with the application of residency. It carries the mention of everything about you, your aspirations and why you want to take up residencyetc
Regarding Portal, kingof hearts , nobody can give you an answer comprising of yes or no,coz everybody is in the same state as you,if we had info, we would have given you by now, so either take the calculated risk or keep waiting till somebody who has actually used their service comes by.
