The admissions team at Kansas City University wants to see evidence that you plan on making a positive and lasting impact on the medical profession. Perhaps you desire to work with a particular population or community. Maybe your vow as a physician is to teach your patients that being diligent about a specific aspect of their health positively impacts their overall well-being. Discuss with passion and enthusiasm how you plan to improve the medical profession and use your skills for the greater good. To provide a memorable response, be as specific as possible.

"I have chosen to become a physician because of the broad impact I can make on my patients, their families, and my community as a whole. Being a General Practitioner is a career where I can impact others by getting to know my patients more closely than many other specialists and providers. As a GP, I will improve the profession by bringing whole-health knowledge and mindset to my patients. When my patients feel motivated and empowered to take their entire health into their hands, it will create a trickle-down effect on other aspects of their lives, including their family members' well-being. This ripple will help create greater respect for general health care, improving how the public views our profession and how often patients visit their GP for regular checkups."
