Letters / Appeal letter for a medical school - how to start? [3]

Hi,

i got rejected from a medical school and so i would like to submit a letter of appeal.

background knowledge for this med sch and myself:-
1) I managed to get decent grades that was enough and i got shortlisted
2) had to submit a personal statement for the interview (included reasons why i wanna study Medicine, etc)
3) gone through 2 interviews and an essay test after being shortlisted

since i've already mentioned reasons why i wanna study medicine in my personal statement i have no idea what to write in my appeal letter.

please help!

Letters / Appeal letter for a medical school - how to start? [3]

well i feel that reiterating why i wanna get admitted into the programme (which is what my personal statement was) would be kind of totally copy-and-paste of what was actually in my personal statement =\ about my passion, again i have already mentioned it inside my personal statement too =x

regarding decent grades it will not help as, since i was already shortlisted for the interviews, it shows that my grades were sufficient to at least make myself worthy of a second chance to actually get enrolled in the medical school. once candidates are shortlisted, grades are no longer important; the interviews and essay test are.

thanks for your reply though! appreciate it!
