Content
The content of your Personal Statement is where admissions tutors will see value in you as a prospective student.
The difficulty tends to be showing all of the relevant information on the limited space provided. 6med will help you structure your content in a way that will appeal to medicine admissions tutors. We’ll spend quite a bit of time looking over the best (and worst) things to say in your statement.
Strategy

Personal Statement Course Reviews
Hundreds and hundreds of students have attended our courses and loved them. In this page, you can find their unedited reviews of our courses.
FAQs
Got some questions about the Personal Statement Crash Course? You might just find the answer here. If not, you can always reach out to us and we’ll be happy to help!
Glad you asked! We certainly think it is, though our opinion is probably slightly biased.
If you want a more impartial opinion, we can tell you that we give a feedback form to students at the end of each course, and our years of teaching the Personal Statement, every single student has answered ‘Yes’ to the question ‘Would you be inclined to recommend the course to a friend?’ We’ve also got a tonne of reviews that you can read on our reviews page.
By all means, if money’s no object then do please attend whatever courses you feel will help you. However, if you’re looking for the best value-for-money option, then there’s really nothing that beats us. We’ll give you a whole day of teaching, provide everything you need to prepare, and in the end, hopefully help you get into a great university. No other company provides all that for the price that we’re offering.
Your course instructor will be a super knowledgeable medic. They will have first-hand experience of the Personal Statement, and have taught many students to follow in their impressive footsteps!
We take great care to make sure our tutors are the best of the bunch. We’ve got an average tutor rating of 4.93/5 (with over 4,000 reviews!) so we think we do a pretty good job of this.
The course is held live on Zoom. You’ll be sent over a link and a companion guide so you can follow along with ease.
Even a jam-packed full-day course like ours won’t teach you everything you need to know for the Personal Statement. What it will do is provide a solid foundation and a springboard for the rest of your revision.
Delivering a good Personal Statement isn’t something you can rely on a silver bullet for, but we hope our Crash Course is as close to a silver bullet as possible!
You can see our normal course schedule by clicking here.
You will be given a 100+ page course e-book, containing all you need to know to do well and packed with tons of examples and actionable tips. During the course itself, we will be referring constantly to this book and interactively going through it as a class. This book should become your best friend every day until you deliver the perfect Personal Statement (after which you can burn it!).
You’ll also get the course companion guide which will take you through the course on the day.
It’s true, we’re not examiners or anything (if those even exist). We’re just a group of medical students who have successfully been through the process. As such, you won’t get any insider knowledge from us (nor will you from anyone else), but what you will get, is arguably the most important perspective – the student’s perspective. Because we know what kinds of things you’ve covered in school, we’re able to tailor our teaching to suit you, in a way that no one else really can.
Along with this, we’ve worked very hard to bring you the best strategies and techniques that have worked for us and we know will work for our students.
It goes without saying that we constantly test and improve upon strategies year on year, and cover any new changes to the course.
We know how hard delivering a strong Personal Statement can be, since we have taken them ourselves very recently. This allows us to share with you the tips and tricks we learnt which we found helpful. And at the end of the day, it just really helps to be taught by people you can easily relate to – it makes things far more enjoyable.
Book today and leave with a strong first draft to ace your Personal Statement.
All of our resources and courses are created and led by tutors who have recently gone through the process and passed with flying colours. We’ve helped thousands of students with their Personal Statement. Will yours be next?
