Guidelines For The Essays
1.Purpose of the essay:
a.To assess students’ thought process, communication and writing skills.
b.To stimulate students to reflect on “why”(look below)? Parents’ desire alone is not a good enough reason. Why do you want to be a doctor?If you really think you are enlisting in a noble profession, ask your non-doctor relatives and friends for a reality check. Doing “good” for humanity is a beaten path!
c.To assess students’ capabilities at writing coherent couple of paragraphs on two questions stated below.
2.First Year/New Applicants:
Essay should address two questions:
a.Why do you want to be a doctor? Describe what attracted you to the profession, what other alternatives did you consider, what nailed it for you? Hint –Parents’ desire maybe a factor but it’s you who is in the medical college. Focus on why YOU want to be a doctor.
b.Why do you think you should receive this scholarship?
Note:
You may also choose to address topics available to higher classes but ONLY if it’s relevant to your circumstances and you have experienced the specific situation. Overall, it’s best to stick with #1 above.
