500 words = your future. Make them count. Here’s the formula.

1. Start with a Story

Not “I’ve always loved medicine.” Do: “At 14, I watched my grandma…”

2. Show, Don’t Tell

Bad: “I’m passionate.”
Good: “I volunteered 200 hours at…”

3. Use EssayPro for Pro Polish

“EssayPro rewrote my PS. Got into 3 ivies.” – Sarah, Senior

4. Structure It

1. Hook (1 para)
2. Why this field (2 paras)
3. Why this school (1 para)
4. Future goals (1 para)

5. Be Specific

Name profs, programs, clubs. Research = effort.

6. End Strong

“I’ll bring X to Y and achieve Z.”

7. Edit 3x

Cut 20%. Read aloud. Perfect grammar.
