The interviewers ask this question to understand what interests you and why. They want to see where you will succeed in the program and how they can help you along the way.

"Since I am most interested in working with pediatric patients who have had a stroke, the electives I found most interesting are cognitive disorders, rehabilitation medicine, outpatient stroke, and palliative care. These electives will give me a broad understanding of working with pediatric stroke patients and how to help rehabilitate them. These electives will also teach me how to explain to the patient's family the patient's diagnosis and prognosis and how they can help in the rehabilitation process."
