The reason why I believe Elizabeth Blackwell is so inspirational is because she was the first woman to every graduate medical school, and receive her M.D. in America. Truly, this act of courage has paved the way for many more women to become doctors in America. In truth, I did not just choose a random woman from history for this essay. On the contrary, I choose…

Each glimpse of the “Agnew Clinic”1 painting attracts me with a deep thoughtfulness. It’s a constant inspiration that whispers me sincerely about expertise. It reminds me to be disciplined and focused on my studies which I want to gain expertise and practice for the rest of my life.

Medicine has always been my true passion. As a first generation college student, I was constantly reminded of the importance of education by my parents. However, I never had a role model to look up to in the medical field. The interest stemmed from my doctor’s visits as a child. I was never particularly prone to illness but yearly checkups made the doctor’s office a somewhat familiar place. I found the pediatric office comforting in many ways.
