Why are you interested in Cardiovascular medicine (Cardiology)?
I don't want to know about lifestyle, hours, or pay. I want to know what is special about it's scope of work, the subject, and the nature of the job. Why do you prefer it over other medical fields? What does Cardiology have that EM doesn't, for example. If you just love the heart and studying it, then why not CT surgery?
On the other hand, what are the cons of Cardiology? Do you find it boring and repetitive (same problems, chest pain, CHF,...etc)? Do you only get older chronic patients? Do you feel that you make a difference?
