Glorifying God through my pursuit of a medical career.
Discernment is not simply a matter of telling the difference between what is right and wrong; rather it is the difference between right and almost right.
He that deserves nothing should be content with anything.
To go to heaven, fully to enjoy God, is infinitely better than the most pleasant accommodations here.
Resolved, to live with all my might, while I do live.
Resolved, never to lose one moment of time; but improve it the most profitable way I possibly can.

Why I chose to attend medical school

Comments
Okay, I'm going to feel a little like I'm writing a pseudo-personal statement, but anyways.

Ever since I was really young, I always enjoyed science and math.  Okay, that sounds like a very typical thing to say.  It's either, "I really enjoyed science and math" or, "I hated them both!"  I really enjoyed science and math, and it was also definitely the areas which I excelled in more.  I liked learning "rules" and observations about why certain things happened the way they did in the world, and I liked being able to use this knowledge to come to more generalized conclusions about phenomena I experienced throughout my daily life!

Ever since I was born until high school, my dad actually pushed me a lot to go into medicine, but me, honestly having no idea what I wanted to do, always said no (more for the sake of saying no).  With working in the medical field came financial stability and an added bonus would be social respect.  What parent doesn't want such things for their son, right?
