If becoming a Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physician was not an option, what career path would you have chosen outside of medicine?

"If medicine wasn't an option, I likely would have pursued a career in education. My mother was an elementary teacher and has been at the 1st-grade level for most of her career. She was very passionate and had a great impact on the lives of all the students she taught. I have a lot of the same passionate qualities for providing education to young and impressionable kids."

There is no right or wrong answer, but you should consider questions like this before your Pediatric Emergency Medicine 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.
