I know that it is generally a bad idea to be dead set on a specific area of medicine and talk about it in your applications, but I feel like I may have an unusual situation. I am a nurse, and have experience in different areas through my clinical rotations in school, and through my work experience. I have found an area that I love, and am very passionate about. My passion for my group of patients is one of the reasons I decided to go back to medical school. I feel like I could do a lot more for my patients as a doctor. My personal statement was about my chosen field, and I talked about it in my interviews. Do you think this was a bad idea and hurt my chances? I had no acceptances this round, and only one wait-list, and I am trying to think of things I could do differently for the next application cycle.
