Describe the community in which you were nurtured or spent the majority of your early development with respect to its demographics. What core values did you receive and how will these translate into the contributions that you hope to make to your community as a medical student and to your career in medicine?
What is the most significant moral or ethical dilemma that you have faced in your life (excluding instances of academic dishonesty involving another person)? Describe how you dealt with and potentially resolved it, including beliefs, resources, individuals, etc. How did this dilemma and its resolution change your life and what, if any, impact will this have on your future as a health care provider?
What has been your most humbling experience and how will that experience affect your interactions with your peers and patients?
The curriculum at the duke university school of medicine is unique and academically challenging. Please describe how the duke curriculum is well-suited to your learning style and how it will serve your long term career objectives.
There are 3 optional essay topics:
Giving Back To Your Community: What is the value of giving back to your community? Is it a more important attribute of a physician than of others performing other roles within a community?
How Are You Misunderstood: What are people most likely to misunderstand about you and why?
Toughest Feedback: What is the toughest feedback that you ever received? How did you handle it and what did you learn from it?
Good luck to everyone applying!
