If pursuing a career in medicine wasn't an option, what other career path would you have chosen outside of medicine?

"If medicine weren't an option for me, I likely would have pursued the police academy to become a local law enforcement officer. Protecting and serving a community would be an honor, and I could see myself thriving in that career."

There is no right or wrong answer, but you should consider questions like this before your Critical Care fellowship interviews. Talk openly and honestly with your interviewers about where your career path would have ideally taken you if becoming a physician wasn't an option. You can certainly have some fun with your answer here if it gives insight into your interests and passions outside of medicine.
