Hi folks,
I am completing a secondary application for one particular allopathic school, and among the essays that I need to write is one regarding a hardship that I have faced, and how I overcame it.
I have already written several versions of this essay for various other schools, but for this one essay, I want to write about an experience I had with romantic rejection and the subsequent dissolution of a friendship, and how I learned the values of forgiving and mindfulness from it.
I know they want to hear about a personal obstacle, and for me this experience really shook my world for a couple of months. I just don't know if it is something that I should write about in a professional setting. I also do not know if it is ethical to write about such things without her consent.
Any advice ? And please be serious, I don't want any Bee-Gees or Billy Joel lyrics about mending broken hearts.
