Hello,
Currently working on my personal statement and am trying to determine which topic to pursue. I have a pretty cool story to share about a visit to a Leprosy clinic in India. However, I questioning whether or not I should open my essay with this as I am afraid it might be associated with "medical tourism". The trip to the clinic was part of a 2-week stay in India during my junior year of high school- it was definitely influential, but I won't include it if it might hurt my app. Any thoughts? Thank you in advance for reading.
