Write a Well-Crafted Personal Statement

Residency programs will review your personal statement before deciding whether to invite you for an interview, so it’s crucial to make it compelling. Set aside ample time to thoughtfully decide what to include and how to structure your essay. However, writing is only the first step. It's equally important to have a skilled editing team to refine and polish your personal statement.

Know Common Questions

While each residency interview will vary, it’s beneficial to anticipate and prepare for common questions you are likely to face across the board. Expect to be asked various questions about your personality, medical education, program of choice, clinical experience, future plans, deficiencies, your research and extra curricular activities, and more.

Practice Interview Skills

Practicing helps build confidence by familiarizing you with common interview questions and scenarios. This preparation reduces anxiety and allows you to present yourself more confidently and professionally during the actual interview. Participate in mock interviews and record yourself so you can observe your conversational flow and if you frequently use filler words.

Research Every Program

Interviews go beyond discussing your academic achievements and personal background. Residency directors are looking to select the most suitable candidates for their program, so it's essential to have a thorough understanding of the institution.
