Hi all,
I understand there are many threads on this type of secondary question so I am fully aware of what is meant by "diversity." However, I was just looking for some feedback on three ideas of mine since most of my other interesting topics were already covered in my primary.
1. Strong ties to my Italian background. Although my immediate family was born here, half of my extended family resides in Italy. I have been there three times and many of them have traveled here (we are very close). My household reflects these Italian-American values as well. Concerns: Italian culture may be overrepresented (although highly stereotyped) and these trips may be seen as being privileged.
2. I started reading a lot of philosophy after I realized there was no philosophy minor at my school, specifically Buddhism after I took a class relating Buddhism with neuroscience. Concerns: I do not know if this carries weight since it was mostly on my own.
3. I double majored in Neuroscience and Biochemistry and took a large range of courses. Concerns: Both majors pertain to science.
Thank you all for responding! All comments are appreciated!
Come back when you have #4. Introspection is a required trait for a doctor. There is nothing new about #3Hi all,
