I am trying to finalize the theme of my personal statement and wanted to get an idea of which would be the best route to go.
1) I pretty much go through events that have led me to medicine and solidified that thought throughout the way. Very clear cut method with imagery along the way.
2) One of my advisors mentioned this the other day and I can't help but think it may help set me apart.
I have been strongly influence by music since middle school and have been heavily involved with it even through undergrad and now into graduate school. Bringing this into my statement, I would like to tell the story of how I came to decide on medicine by relating that journey to different parts of a music piece, capturing the ups and the downs of the entire process.
Would this be too far out there? If done well, could this be successful?
My thoughts on it are that certain things may not be known to anyone that reads it and the purpose will be lost.
