Prospective medical student needs help writing a personal essay! Must be creative and individual

Hi!
I need urgent help with writing an essay about my personal achievements (community, academic and sporting). I have never written an essay like this so I am struggling. I am an Australian student that lives in a rural area so I don't get many opportunities, in particular, ones that concern the community or even academic ones, which is exactly what this university is asking for. Also I am only a B grade student so I never receive any prestigious award at school.

So, I was wondering if anyone could at least provide me with a scaffold or ideas. I'm not very creative so I have absolutely no idea how I can even start the essay to get the reader's attention.

The university which I am applying for values leadership primarily.

I am a student interested in bridging into medicine after i complete my first degree, therefore I believe that all human life must be valued and I am also interested in working as a doctor rurally once I complete my study.

Yours sincerely,
A desperate student

It would be helpful to know the prompt of you essay. Also just name off a few things about yourself, do you work with animals now? do you have a job? What do you do on a day to day basis. You essay doesn't have to be one amazing tale, it just has to say something about you.

Sage,

When writing a personal essay, think about writing a diary with the following notes;

- how did you start in the academe
- how did you progress
- what are the goals you have
- how do you plan to achieve this goals
- what are your aspirations
- how will you keep your good work, consistency is the key
- if your pursuing the medical world, what do you plan to strengthen your practice
- lastly, how can you give back to the community or the institution that will provide you the scholarship

Try writing on your own and post it here so we can help you further.

Sage,
I wrote three personal essays last year for one of my university application and it was also very difficult for me because I did not have lots of ECs. ECs does matter but the most important aspect of writing a personal essay is HOW you word it. When you start writing, keep these three points in mind:

-What did you do?
-Why was it significant?
-What did you learn from it?
This was the format that I used to write an effective personal essay. Hopefully, you found this information useful.
