Guest ubcredfox Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 Is anyone else finding these difficult, it's as if i've hit a mental block with questions 2 and 3. Days are running low, and I just can't seem to get through it.. Any ideas on good ways out of this situation/what exactly they're looking for? Would #2 (the question, not bowel movement) be more "factual" or more "motivational"? Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest geekpunk Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 I hear ya...I really should've tried to finish these up after the MCAT but I slacked and now the days are running out. I prety much have Questions 1-3 left, although I have about 1000 characters for each so I've just got add a bit more and edit. Unfortunately, I think I'll only have my parents and maybe a friend to read them over once before I submit. To top it off, I've still got to finish up the Toronto Essay too! About ~600 words right now. Aaaaaaaaaaah Why oh why couldn't all schools be as simple in applying as Western?! :rollin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aktpkb Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 geekpunk, Yes, western may seem to be simple because we don't need to do essays but then that just means they have higher GPA and/or MCAT requirements! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest uftstudent Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 Hi...I was wondering for this question that asks us to explain past experiences and development...is it a good idea to mention education? After all, it has helped prepare me for medicine...or are they looking for more non-academic responses here? Of course i'll also mention other activities... thanks for your help!!!

Guest seedstrike Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Hi uftstudent. By education, do you mean your undergraduate degree? That is important and you can mention that your degree has somehow helped you decide on medicine as a career. But I assume there must be some other factors in your life (volunteering, TAing, Research, Docs in the family, camp couselling, etc) that has impacted your decision. By past experiences, the adcomm is more interested in these factors considering they already know the undergrad degree you are pursuing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
