At Drexel University, we want students with a true passion for medicine. What appeals to you most about working in the medical field?
If you read Drexel's College of Medicine guiding principle before your medical school interview, you'll quickly see key terms like dedication, devotion, and commitment. The interviewers would like to understand what drives your pursuit of a career in the medical field, knowing that your core passion will keep you going on the toughest of days at Drexel University.
"Several factors drive my passion for a career in medicine. If I had to pinpoint one main motivation, I would say that saving the lives of others every day is the most significant for me. Everyone deserves great health care, and I plan to live that mantra by being the best at what I do and giving my all to my patients. I'm driven by an innate desire to care for others, and I can't wait to bring this passion to the Drexel University medical school."
It is okay to share a personal story when answering this question. Perhaps you can discuss what initiated your interest in attending medical school. Whatever drives you, make sure the interviewers feel your passion and know that you'd bring this same passion to Drexel University's medical school.
