Personal Statements?

Just wondering if anyone had any insight on the personal statement for Ortho? I don't really know how to
verbalize that I like sterilized power tools and hitting things!

Re: Personal Statements?

Think of all those boring personal statements that have to be read one after another. I think honesty and a
little bit of tasteful HUMOR will really make you stand out. It seems that interviewers are usually relieved by an
interesting or funny opening line. It will set the tone for the rest of your statement and even sometimes your
interview. Judging from the way you phrased your question, Im sure you wont have a problem. Good luck.
