If you weren't accepted into medical school this year, do you have a plan in place for the coming year?

"Should I not be accepted into medical school the first time, I plan to reapply the following year. I would take that year to upgrade any required courses and prepare an even stronger application. My life's goal is to become a physician, and I certainly won't take one rejection as a final answer."

If you are not accepted, show that you will take a different path in the coming year to help build your CV and experience. You should also let the interviewers know that one rejection won't stop you at all! Talk about your plan to reapply if rejected. Whatever path you choose, you must show the interviewers that you have confidence and drive and that it'll take more than one rejection to keep you down!
