Check out Katie Lee's website and genetic counseling-related digital downloads here: https://www.katieleecgc.com/shop You can find her relevant blog posts here: https://www.katieleecgc.com/blog I'm Katie Lee Hornberger, a multi-state licensed, certified genetic counselor with 7+ years of reproductive genetic counseling experience. I've worked in a clinic setting, a lab setting, and in multiple industry roles including a start-up and a small business where I was the first and only GC on staff. I love the field of reproductive genetic counseling and helping people grow their families, but beyond that I also enjoy teaching and training current GC students. My vision for this channel is to inspire aspiring genetic counselors by providing insights into the career and application process. My hope is that by making information on genetic counseling widely available and showing a friendly genetic counselor face, a more diverse set of applicants will be inspired to explore a career in genetic counseling. On Wannabe Wednesday I post content on the application process including tips on editing your CV, personal statement, and how to answer grad school interview questions. Beyond that I demystify common questions about genetic counseling like how much do you get paid and whether or not genetic counseling is a stressful career. If this content sounds interesting to you, please subscribe to my channel and ring the notification bell! While other GCs have monetized application help, I am committed to sharing lots of tips for free so you don't want to miss out. Whether you are on the third draft of your personal statement or you haven't even started, in today's video I am going to discuss three essential tips to crush your genetic counseling application personal statements. 1. Brainstorm experiences that will make you a great genetic counseling student/genetic counselor and journal about them in detail. Think about whether the experience is common or whether it sets you apart. Try to think about experiences that challenged you, helped you grow, etc. Think of experiences that demonstrate characteristics that will make you a good genetic counselor. If you want to share that you are compassionate in your personal statement, think of a time in your personal, professional, or educational life that you demonstrated compassion. I'll share a personal example to get you on the right track. 2. Read the prompts for each school. Be sure you know what they are asking and what type of candidate they are looking for. 3. Now that you have brainstormed a list of experiences that demonstrate why you are an amazing candidate AND you understand what each school wants to see in the essays from analyzing the prompts, identify the experiences that are going to fit best for each personal statment. Don't forget to explore each school's website and see if they provide any clues about the type of candidate they are looking for. And NOW it's really time to write. Next week's WW video will be a personal statement Q and A, so please be sure to write any questions you have about personal statements down below!
