This question aims to determine whether you want to study medicine or if this career path is what someone else wants for you. Too often, students experience the familial pressures to follow the career path their parental figures feel is best for their child. Yet this isn't always a recipe for success. It can lead to low career satisfaction, poor performance, or an incomplete degree. Therefore, your admissions interviewer wants to ensure this is the right path for you before admitting you into their program. Share your personal story, what led you to pursue a career in medicine, and any other personal motivators or inspirations.
