The Penn State application has questions specific to the combined program, and one of those questions is a personal statement that asks why an accelerated program and why the Penn State/ Jefferson program?

For those of you who have applied or are considering applying, what kind of things do you write? Is it okay to say you are committed to medicine, and you would prefer an accelerated program to spending an extra year in undergrad? And I cannot think of a good reason for why this program... It is a good program so I am applying.

Thank you!!
