UCSD Secondary Essay

For this "autobiographical sketch" question, what are you supposed to write exactly? I mean it says to include family and childhood, etc., so do they actually want you to say, I was born here, I went to elementary school here, blah blah . . . or do you just focus on medical related stuff like your motivations for going into medicine? Well I guess the instructions say to do both, but this family and childhood thing is weird. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

For me, I just talked about significant parts of my childhood up until college and then a little about my plans for the future. I just wrote it like it was a type of story. I included stuff like hobbies or significant events in my life etc.........

Okay, thanks. I guess I'll figure out something.
