Our annual personal statement review event is designed to aid young people applying to medical school who attend a state school in Scotland, and in particular those from a widening participation background. This is always a hugely popular event amongst school pupils who find the benefit of having our volunteers read over and feedback on their personal statements a huge asset to their overall application process. The reviewing volunteers include current medical students and doctors, and all statements will then also be reviewed by a member of the YCBAD board prior to it being returned to the applicant.
Personal statements should be submitted using this form (https://forms.gle/TR3hamd1E8bo2SCv6) by 6/10/25, and will aim to be returned by 12/10/25, prior to the final submission date on 15/10/25.
