@TarekAmerPhD @vidhigr @uvic Hi Dr. Amer, I'm interested! I'm a biomedical engineering graduate currently researching Alzheimer's and age related dementia using animal models. I would love to get in touch and share more on my background with you!

[Antara Verma @antaraverma01]

@perlabi_ @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice Hi! You are absolutely right. I do believe she will provide me with constructive feedback after she reads my work. I just didn't want to get into it without a reference point!

[Antara Verma @antaraverma01]

I've been asked to review a manuscript by my supervisor & I haven't done this before. Any pointers on what kind of feedback I'm supposed to give? @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice #AcademicTwitter

This thread contains three winning samples of statement of purpose. One from a student who got into a PhD program at Harvard. I also included a pdf stating the do's and dont's of SOP writing. I hope you find it helpful. I'll let you know when I find more.

Retweet.
