Biomedical Personal Statement

The medical field is a career path that brings about many options and opportunities of great value. The noble idea of being a doctor tends to cloud the diligent studying and precise training that is actually required for this career. I have wanted to become a doctor since a very young age, and now that the opportunity is here for the taking, I have fully researched what it takes to succeed in this profession and various specialties of the practice. The road to a medical degree is one filled with thousands of notes, years of schooling, and many stressful nights, but the reward is one incomparable to any other. Saving people’s lives on a day-to-day basis has been one of my dreams for as long as I can remember, so the rigorous curriculum

Just as the institution is eager to continue embracing the ever-changing world of healthcare and medicine, I too embody this same distinguishing characteristic. Throughout my undergraduate experiences I have learned in order to be a steward and servant of the medical profession one must exercise teamwork, service, empathy, accountability, and optimism; all of which coincide with the tenets that are declared by the Meharry Medical College, School of Medicine culture. Attending this medical school would be one of the greatest rewards for my motivation and persistence. I know for certain there would be no greater experience than to be a part of the Meharry Medical College

Biomed Academy at my high school will be the most contributing factor to attain my goal. This academy has changed my perspective about medicine career. I have gained tons of knowledge from BioMed academy in these high school years. This will help me to attain my goal, because the knowledge gained from this academy will help me to be a successful medical professional. The principle of Health Science, Health Science, CNA, psychology, Biology, and anatomy and physiology are classes that prepared me to be an eligible Pre-Med applicant. I have learned from the basic structures of the body to the complex structure of the body, and from classroom to hands-on experience at the rehabilitation center. These years in BioMed Academy will help me to attain

As an undergraduate, I gained invaluable hands-on clinical experience working for the University Health Services Clinic. I was able to directly interact with the patients, listen to their concerns, take their vitals, and network with nurses, practitioners and physicians about their condition and treatment plan. I worked on a team of medical professionals to provide expedited, yet compassionate care. Temple 's emphasis on clinical medicine, starting the very first year, will allow me to continue my experience and clinical training, further developing my ability to provide compassionate care through effective interpersonal communication, clinical reasoning, and teamwork.

By entering this program, I hope to acquire this deeper understanding by pursuing a degree complementary to my specialty and gain crucial experience as a PhD to thrive as a scientist. I believe my foundation in research, academic performance, and motivation to enter the field of medicine make me a strong candidate for admission as a MD/PhD student, and I hope to use these degrees together to serve the scientific community in ways I could not by choosing just one. It would be my purpose as a researcher to contribute to our understanding of the human body and my purpose as a physician to bring a higher level of care to as many patients as possible, both present and

The most progressive discoveries of all time have two elements in common: a component of critical thinking and a component of creativity. It is these two dimensions that led to my selection of biomedical engineering as my major. After being a student at Harford Community College (HCC) for two years, I recognize that I have reached my full potential here and need to transfer in order to continue growing as a student. As an active member in the STEM program, majoring in Chemistry with Calculus-Based Physics at HCC, I developed the necessary logistical skills and analytical mindset needed in order to grasp concepts and utilize them effectively. In addition to my academic pursuits, I have continued to develop myself as a musician by playing at various events as well as improvising my own music.

The reason I wanted to be involved in the health field is because I wanted to pursue a career that gives back to other people the blessings that I received when I first entered this world. I was born prematurely and my mother often reminds me that it was the dedicated hard work of the physicians, nurses, and other health-care workers who saved my life when I was born. Throughout my life, this has always been an inspiration and motivation for me to help others. Having a profession in the health field should not be treated as just a career to earn a salary or a paycheck, but as a career where you will be helping to make the world a little healthier and better.

I hope to gain a better perspective of what it takes to be in the medical field. I understand that the program allows us to observe patient care in the emergency department of Grady Hospital. I believe it’s an amazing opportunity to see all the obstacles in managing patient care first hand. There are many patients who are hit with a medical condition or disaster that have low incomes. With my family’s history of low income and the amount of medical conditions they had to face it would be great to have a better understanding of what they went through. Despite growing up and being exposed to the medical issues my family continuously faced I never truly understood what any of the procedures or how the hospitals worked. Being able to talk with

Being part of a robotics team for three years has introduced me into some aspects of engineering. I have had the opportunity to build a relationship with one engineering professor from the Univeristy of Brown and a mentors who aided me and my team with the designing, building and programing of the robot. I was able to learn a lot of new and interesting things from the mentors. The mentors were both females who were pursuing a master's degree in biomedical engineering. They informed about the variety of ways one can do to help others when they get a biomedical engineering degree.

I did not find fulfillment with my education until I found architecture. Before then, I had always enjoyed studying art and design, but was encouraged to pursue a major that fit my parents more serious idea of education. This is why I spent my first year at North Carolina State University as an Exploratory Studies student, taking courses to try and enter the Biomedical Engineering major. Chasing a major that was not a good fit for my interests proved detrimental for me, as I lost focus over my school work and the courses proved difficult to keep up with. It was not until I had the opportunity to interview an architect working in downtown Raleigh that I came to the realization architecture was perfectly suited for me. The world of formative design and studio culture seemed like an education that was too good to be true. I was in disbelief over how the right career field had evaded me all these years. I took the opportunity to sit in on architecture classes and was sold.

I am applying to the joint program with the Drexel University College of Medicine because I have a great passion for the sciences and am eager to pursue a career in the medical field. This enthusiasm for the sciences has been a part of me since I was young, and it has developed throughout my highschool years. In witnessing my mother’s battle with uterine cancer and my grandfather’s recovery from several heart attacks, I have realized that I would love to help others who are suffering. I know that this program at Drexel is a good fit for me because I share in their belief that all patients should be shown compassion and respect. I aspire to show my patients a high level of care and concern in the future because I know that it will be the most

Throughout my life, there have been many experiences that have sparked my interest in biomedicine and in the healthcare Field. My initial experience that peaked my overall interest was my biology class was biology class my sophomore year of high school. This class not only expose me to the biomedical field, but it also revealed to me to my own passion for human science and medicine. It was the topic of DNA replication that really sparked my interest in the health care field. When reading about transcribing and altering jeans to help improve human life I knew I wanted to be apart of that process.

Maribel fought for her life during a five year battle with cancer, and during her journey she deserved to be treated with the three C’s that exemplify the Santa Clara University mission: competence, by having the best possible health care professionals caring for her and helping her battle cancer with the best treatments, conscience by being treated with respect and mindfulness and compassion not only by her health care providers but those who surrounded her daily. This health care ethics internship will allow me practice these values that exemplify this institution: it will allow me to continue to gain experience treating patients with kindness and respect to the best of my medical abilities as an EMT on campus. Being an EMT has allowed me to help the SCU community during possibly one of the worst nights of a student's life but this internship will allow me to explore a future career in the healthcare field possibly as a nurse practitioner. I choose this over becoming a doctor because it would mean that i would be able have patient interaction sooner and I want to start making a difference in the lives of others as soon as

From an early age, I have been fascinated by how things work. It seems, listening to family, that I was never satisfied with a simple answer that machine runs on power; but always wanted to know more. As I completed my undergraduate education in ________, I became more and more interested in pursuing an advanced degree in Biomedical Engineering. My well-rounded educational pursuits thus far have served me well, engineering complimented by a sound background in the humanities and hard sciences. I have, though, a robust passion to learn more, to hone my skills even more in a field that has simply exploded over the past decade biomedical engineering.

One of the crucial moments in my life was the decision I had to take; as to what I was going to do next in life. Having completed my Advanced Level in 2013, I realized that it was not the end of my career as a student. I needed strong academic foundation along with other soft skills to meet the challenges and survive in this commercial world as a successful individual. In view of these thoughts, I was unable to make a firm decision as to what my career direction would be. After a month or so of various discussions with my parents, friends and other learned people I was able to reason out the best choice for me.
