"I believe I am the strongest student for your pharmacy program because I am incredibly dedicated to my professional and personal development. Since beginning my undergraduate program, I have committed to taking a personal development workshop twice yearly. The topics have included communication, personability, multi-tasking, organization, and even persuasive writing. I plan to take these skills and apply them to my graduate studies as well. I have already demonstrated a notable dedication to this profession, as evidenced by my work outside the classroom. I regularly seek out additional educational opportunities ensuring that I continue gaining new knowledge related to the pharmacy field."
