I read the personal statement twice and felt that it needs to be revised
completely. Typically a statement includes several subsections. Firstly,
the applicants need to tell the admission committee what are their
long-term research interests and briefly, why. Then they should tell them
what efforts have they paid toward the goal. How prepared are they for the
graduate program. These could include course work, lab working experience
and their specific, unique life experience. The key is not to tell others
stuff that all applicants have done, such as the basic curriculum. But
unique aspects of this can be interesting. For example, they have done
particularly well in some or all courses. They have taken courses from
graduate school or from other fields. They have done experiments and gained
some solid lab experience. They are from particularly poor family or harsh
environment and succeeded, etc.



Committee members are also interested to know what applicants expect to
achieve in graduate school. What will be their long term career plan and
how the graduate training will facilitate their efforts.



It could be helpful for the applicants to identify some specific research
areas and potential PIs in their statement. However they should be careful
because it can backfire. The PI might not be in the search committee or not
powerful enough.



The statement you gave me needs to eliminate the first section about the
definition of “scientist”. It should also compress and refine his/her
description on the lab experience. It is great, but reads very redundant.
Lastly, I can sense the tone that the applicant “lectures” the admission

committee. This can be dangerous and annoying to read. The applicant should

also add stuff that I just described.
