5An extremely valuable resource for medical students.  Feb 22, 1999
Dr. Tysinger draws on his extensive experience advising medical students to share useful strategies for the match process. He offers practical tips for preparing personal statements and CVs, and gives particular attention to the process of identifying personal experiences and strengths and developing "marketing strategies" for residency interviews. Lots of examples are provided to help illustrate the variety of experiences that can be discussed in a personal statement. Dr. Tysinger also provides worksheets for the applicant to complete to aid in the writing process. Much of the advice provided will be of great help to physicians further along in their careers, as well as other health professionals. This book will be particularly helpful to the medical student who is having difficulty with his/her personal statement because "I haven't done anything except go to medical school for the last four years!" This book can help you identify your strengths and unique abilities, no matter what you've done (or haven't done) and no matter what your specialty choice is. I highly recommend it.

5The Best Resource I've Encountered  Sep 18, 2004 By Zach Jones
I am a prospective med-school student in the application process. I have been to several bookstores, online sites, and my own college's health professions office. No guide, book, or handout has even a fraction of the depth and clarity in this book. This book guides the reader step by step towards a great resume and personal statement in a structured, workbook-like format. This strategy was particularly helpful when I wrote my personal statement. The author's years of experience shine through in the motivational and preperatory statements designed to ease the student through the stressful process. Dr. Tysinger's methods are unique and thorough, and more than just a compilation of pre-fabricated examples. I am confident my personal statement addresses issues and qualities med schools are concerned with in a fluid and easily understandable manner. This guide is one of a kind for healthcare applicants.

4Highly recommend this book for health care professional who seeking a job.  Apr 29, 2010 By Y. Yang "Hotimg"
I feel that this book is very useful for foreign medical graduate who are applying for residency. These samples are very helpful for creating our own PS and CV.
