      Answer Example

      "While I am proud of my academic successes through high school and college, I'm proudest of the volunteer club I helped create during my sophomore year. A close classmate and I had the idea to give back to the community through a couple of the local homeless shelters. We started the club from scratch, recruited volunteers, and set up a formal structure for the club. We worked closely with leaders at the shelter to carve out roles for volunteers. As I exit that campus, I'm proud to say that the club has over 20 members and new leaders to continue the club into the future."

      "I am proud of all my achievements, and getting a high GPA and doing well on my MCAT are among those, but one achievement that I am particularly proud of is being acknowledged in my lab's research paper. A lot of hours of lab work went into the paper. This achievement also represents my ability to overcome difficult situations. The research was a difficult learning curve, but with patience and effort, I got better over time."
