Do NOT plagiarize your personal statement. Length; Since one page in length in a Word Doc is not the same as what one page will equal one page in ERAS for personal statement formatting, the key is stick to 750-850 words for your ERAS/residency application personal statement.
Now, How About Tips for Your Residency Application? Prepare well in advance. Use your network to build letters of recommendation for residency. Collect the necessary paperwork. Outline your supporting experience. Work on your personal statement. Work hard during your clinical rotations.
Your personal statement is a one-page essay (not to exceed 4,500 characters, including spaces, carriages, numbers, letters, etc.) that gives dental schools a clear picture of who you are and, most importantly, why you want to pursue a career in dentistry.
Make sure your motivation sounds genuine and your view of the specialty realistic. Personal attributes that make you particularly well suited for the specialty, will help you succeed in your profession and/or will help you withstand the rigors of residency training. What are your long-term plans (beyond residency)?
Give specific examples of experiences that inform your career choice or demonstrate your skills (avoid clichs and generalities). Given the choice, choose experiences from your recent school or clinic years over experiences from college or earlier, to show that you have grown professionally and personally.
