"What sets me apart from other applicants with the same qualifications is my dedication to pursuing a medical career. Since the age of 16, I have set my sights on attending medical school, and I have never wavered on that goal. I did not switch majors or opt for an easier course schedule throughout my undergraduate studies. I consistently prepared myself by taking high-level coursework and setting high result standards in everything I do. My unwavering dedication will see me through medical school with levels of success that other applicants may not generate."

"Two main factors set me apart from other med school applicants. First, I have demonstrated outstanding dedication to this profession, as evidenced by my work inside and outside the classroom. Inside the classroom, my grades have been stellar and consistent. Outside the classroom, I dedicate time to serving others in numerous volunteer capacities. Second, I regularly seek out additional educational opportunities to continue gaining new knowledge related to medicine. For instance, during high school, I took online courses to prepare for my career in the medical field. In addition to my high school studies, I completed coursework like Anatomy & Physiology, Physical Science Physics, and Forensic Science."
