Personal Statement : Becoming A Doctor

As a young child, I was always drawn towards the field of health care. I remember reading about the many options that are held within it and wondering what path it would lead me on. Neonatal nursing was something that always came into my mind, but it was often pushed to the side by people and teachers who thought I should become a pediatrician instead. This became a real struggle for me, but as I grew up and began researching and exploring the health care field I came to a decision for myself. I came to the realization that everyone was wrong. I didn’t want to be a doctor at all. This sudden burst of independence from what everyone else wanted was the first step to reaching my end goal. Along with this, an accelerated education, volunteer

My motivation for furthering my education is to become a doctor. I feel obligated to be a doctor because I love knowing things about the human body and how they various parts work together. In addition, I want to be a doctor is because I love working with kids. I am a people person and especially children, which is something we the public needs more of in the medical community. More doctors that truly care about. I believe posses what it takes to do the job. Furthermore, I have watched many of my family members struggle with their finances due to the lack of job stability and I intend to carry on a different financial future .

At the age of ten, I read a book, “Gifted Hands” by Dr. Ben Carson, which inspired and begin to motivate my interest in pursuing medicine as a career because I could identify with his discovery of the joy of reading and his fascination with science. When I was 14, I had an epiphany at the doctor’s office. This event occurred a little after I had finished my final exams in school and the next step was to go to senior high school. But, I thought the preliminary chemistry and physics classes of junior high school were daunting and went on to convince myself that a career in medicine might not be right for me.

The reason that I choose the medical field is because since I was a child, I've always helped my mom who suffered from MS. Her condition made her suffer from not being able to a lot of things on her own such as, cooking cleaning and bathing herself. My mom had multiple strokes in her lifetime that would cause her not being able to take care of herself. I would definitely say that you will have to be a strong person to help take care of those in need. It has prepared me for all the ups and downs which An RN will have to endure in their career such as learning how to handle people who cannot care for their self's. it made it easier for me to choose what I wanted to do in life. Especially preparing for her death. On January 16, 2016 my mom's fight with MS finally ended. I watched her lay there which one of the hardest

Growing up I was always exposed to the medical field because my mom worked in the emergency department in the local hospital. When I graduated high school, I got a job working in the construction field making a great salary, for as young as I was. Because of this, I continued to work in this field for the next eleven years. It wasn’t until I was 29 years old when I got laid off of my construction job and my whole world came crashing down on me. I moped around for a month but quickly realized that this is now my time to pursue my dream of becoming a Firefighter and Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). That next summer I enrolled at Aims Community College in

I come from a small rural town nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. My hometown is split down the middle by a set of railroad tracks. On the north side, one can find pristine neighborhoods, newer schools, most doctors’ offices, and the only hospital in town. The south side of the town stands as a stark contrast. On the south side, you no longer find the wealthy neighborhoods but rather dilapidated and condemned homes and housing projects. One seems to find abandoned buildings on every corner, many inhabited by those that have lost their homes. Limited help is coming for those who need it, mostly through churches and volunteer programs targeting the underserved. Many doctors, dentists, and nurses are giving their time and resources to help

Physician Assistant A physician assistant work in all areas of medicine. They also help with surgeries. I was stuck between this career and being a paramedic.

“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing”- Pelé. When I think about my future, quite frankly, I’m not sure where I’ll end up. I truly believe my future will depend on my personal happiness no matter what career I end up in. However, that’s not how life goes. In a career, it’s not all flowers and daisies; you sacrifice, you endure, you persevere, and sometimes, you suffer but in the end you are rewarded with a life only dreamed by some. I’m not looking at the medical field for money, I’m looking at it for how it fits to my characteristics. The medical field is a group of people willing to suffer, sacrifice, and endure for the well-being

I am interested in this program because it'll help me career wise and help me with personal growth. After I graduate high school I am planning on following the pre-med track as a major and this program would help me get a sense of what its going to be like as a pre-med student prior to me going to a college or universities, if I join their medical science track. In addition, although I want to study pre-medicine and science I haven't had much opportunities to study the different branches of sciences outside my school's curriculum, which is usual regents based and they only have 1 AP science class, AP environmental science which isn't the field I am interested in. Furthermore, I would like to join the program because they also focus on helping

When I was in high school, I had no clue what I wanted to be when I grow up. My parents encouraged me to look at being a doctor or engineer but I wasn’t too sure. I knew two things for sure at this young age; that I loved sports, especially football, and interacting with people. It was not until my sophomore year that I found what I am passionate about even though it came at one of the saddest time in my life.

I am non-traditional medical school applicant mainly because my desire and decision to pursue a medical profession was not made until the spring semester of my senior year as a college undergraduate. After graduating in May 2013 I started to study for the MCAT during the summer of 2013. After taking the MCAT I decided to enroll in my college taking post baccalaureate courses for one semester in order to reinforce my science background and improve my GPA. I took courses in psychology, sociology, and repeated physics and chemistry courses and received an A in both courses.

Every night, as I sat on the table with my younger brothers assisting them with their homework, I hear a familiar sound at the door. As she walks her heels click, and I can hear her searching her bag for her keys, the next thing I know the keys are in the lock and as it turns me and my younger brothers’ jump. We run to the door and indeed we scream in unison “Mommy’s home”, one by one she gives us a hug and a kiss. My mother asks us how our day was, and if we finished our homework, she then looks to me and said “did you cook and assist your younger ones with their homework”; I replied “yes mom”. As I warm the food, I take my mother’s purse, jacket, and shoes put them away and prepare the table for her to eat dinner. As I glance at the

I want many things in life but the thing I want the most is to be a doctor. I want to be useful to this world. I want to make god happy for creating me. I want to be a doctor because there are many people who are in desperate need of medical attention, but either can’t afford it or there is no medical services near. I want to travel to poor countries with poor medical attention and offer free medical services. I also want to major in surgery and therapy because the there are many diseases that require surgery and some people had been through many bad events and need help getting over them. Many people don’t want to go to therapy because they thing that therapy is for crazy people. I want to educate people with low resources on important things that are beneficial to their wellbeing as well as the wellbeing of others. I also want to teach young teens about
