Hey there! So, I have a pretty unique theme (like using the growth from a child to a man to denote my own growth, but, hopefully not as cliche) that I use throughout my 'Why MD?' essay. I initially had a paragraph about how that theme relates to my passion for research in my PS but eventually decided to remove it to focus more on the MD aspect of my passions for MD/PhD.
Now, I have a pretty nice setup and can possibly reuse that theme to talk about 'Why MD/PhD?'. I also think this adds coherence to my entire message on why research and clinical care mesh so well for me. However, I feel unsure about reusing the same theme because I then have to set it up again (as I do not know the order in which the essays will be read), and this might be repetitive (I've read a couple of places that we shouldn't repeat info as there is precious little space....). Is this done often and can I possible use a single sentence to remind the reader of my theme and then reuse it to bring the research and clinical sides together in my statement? What do you think?
