Hey everyone I'm working on one of the prompts for a med school and I'm stuck on this one:



What do you consider a valuable experience in your personal development? This might be a decision made, an achievement of which you are particularly proud, or a person who has influenced your life.

I was planning to write about:
-how meeting my best friend impacted me
-getting the highest grade in both orgo semesters (dont really want to talk about academics again though)
-how i managed to slim down from 200-170 lbs and my determination (leaning on this one)

What do you guys think? Opinions? Thanks!

I am leaning towards the weight loss one, since it sounds more personal to you.

That's what I was thinking too, because it shows another side of me, with more diversity.

I wrote about my weight loss experience (310->260), and it was mentioned (positively) in a bunch of my interviews. Apparently most pre-meds are skinny bastards, lol. Definitely pick that one though, and maybe tie in how your expieireinces will allow you to better empathize with your patient population
 
LEANING on this one!! AHAHA! You're hilarious, man.
