Again, "poking a cervix" was never the final wording or ever more than a sentence and is no longer in there.@samualjhatfield
I fully understand the morbidity of description now and am not including anything about physical descriptions or actions in the autopsy.
It has been changed to simply I was there to learn, they pointed out everything that contributed to her death (no specifics), they answered all of my questions, I was fascinated to learn but seeing it all first hand I knew I wanted to be on the other side when the patient is still alive.
You do not understand because seeing an autopsy is perplexingly still in your PS. Poking a cervix is not a why medicine answer
That is the gist of the first 1,700 characters of the personal statement followed by further events.
1700 characters too many
Even this does not seem to fly and I am not getting it and would greatly enjoy if it were explained.
read the thread
I am actively working on an alternate PS not involving the autopsy, however I have additionally changed the autopsy personal statement and I feel as though it reads a lot better than you are presenting it in your head.
What I do not understand is why an autopsy in and of itself it not able to be used in a personal statement? It was my first true experience seeing the multifaceted communication and knowledge exchange that occurs between a team of physicians. This I what inspired me to pursue the pre-med track. Please explain how, sans morbidity, merely the fact that my observation of the multi-physician team was during an autopsy rather than with a living patient discredits its use?
I fully understand the general consensus for removing the morbidity aspect. Taking the advice of getdown is the direction I have aimed to move. But please tell me why autopsy or pathology experience should be now where near it? I genuinely do not understand.
