Hi guys,
I am currently applying to medical school this cycle and I have a quick question about my personal statement that I'm hoping someone might be able with. I was diagnosed with Crohns disease in 2008 and that played a big role in why I decided to pursue medicine. I planned on including this fact in my PS but I worry that having a chronic illness may somehow be held against me. Is my worry warranted or would I be fine bringing it up in my PS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
