In the last few videos, we've talked about med school secondary essays and the secondary application to med school. Today, we're going to dive into how to start writing them. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is start—hopefully, I can help get you over the hump!

Here are 4 tips to get started writing your secondaries:

1. Focus on the school's mission.
2. Journal about your experiences to come up with stories and themes to mention.
3. Start early—prewrite your secondaries with http://secondaryapps.com.
4. Don't repeat verbatim stories from your primary app in your secondary essays.

Make sure that as a premed, you don't neglect secondary applications for your medical school application. Med schools rely on your essays as a vital part of the application process.
