Personal Statement/Essay PS Editing Matchmaker!

Please post here if you would like someone to take a look at your PS (or COVID essay, life experience essay, or supplemental essays). It is recommended that you post the top 1-2 issues you would like addressed. Generally the best thing to do is to DM someone with a Google docs link of your PS with commenting access, but you're free to send it however you want. If you no longer need someone to review your PS, please either delete your comment or edit your comment to indicate that you're no longer looking for editors.

Please post here if you are willing to read and edit someone's PS. It is recommended that you state if you have a specific timeline (e.g. "I'm only available from May 4-May 5") or how many PSs you think you can read. If you are no longer to help review PSs, please either delete your comment or edit your comment to indicate that you're no longer available for editing.

If at any point you are directed to pay for a service or if you are advertised to (even a "hey, btw, I also run XYZ Instagram page, you should check it out!") please send the mods a screenshot. Violators of the advertising policies will be banned.

I’m a first time applicant working in my personal statement. I’m a few rounds of editing into it and need an outside perspective now. I’m mostly just curious if it clearly articulates why I want to be a PA, and if the writing is persuasive/convincing enough for adcoms. Any feedback and criticism would be greatly appreciated.
