It is now some years since I practiced as a physician in Nigeria. However, I have spent the intervening period working in a medical environment in the US, with which I am now very familiar. In addition to my medical-related work in the US, I have maintained a close interest in recent medic…
Hilda was an indigent patient who spoke only Spanish, so I was called in to translate. The news was terrible, and it was my duty to deliver her the test results and the prognosis. Hilda had an inoperative brain malignancy. If the diagnosis had been made earlier, Hilda would have survived. I felt hel…
My family has no medical connection I can trace, nor can I claim an early longing to become a PA, nurse, or doctor. I was, until relatively recently, happy to be a dedicated and reasonably well rewarded ‘back room girl’ working as a Research Analyst. However, over the years, I have met people who pr…
When teaching preschool children, I became aware that communication problems in children are much more common than I had suspected, that there are insufficiently trained people to deal with the situation, especially in a bi-cultural setting, and that the failure to offer practical and early interven…
I was once asked, “Who is your engineering hero?” and answered perfectly honestly that it is my father. My father ran an auto repair shed in South Vietnam; he repaired and serviced three-wheel taxis and automobiles. People relied on my father to enable them to make a living and feed their children,…
It is now some years since I worked on a ward. I have worked for the most part in research and Pharmacy. I have enjoyed both roles and have excelled within them. However, I now want to treat patients directly and undertake research, and my particular interest is an Ob/GYN. I completed my residency …
Two factors, in particular, account for my profound passion for professional growth in the area of special education and my decision to apply to your program. Foremost among these significant factors was the fact that I, too, was once in special education classes to overcome my disability to perform…
I am very keen on outdoor pursuits especially hunting and fishing, and, consequently, spend much of my spare time in rural Nevada pursuing these interests. I have come to love the wilder parts of Nevada and the local people who have an exciting view of life and a heart-warming neighborliness to a to…
Since I became a student pilot, flying has helped to prepare me for medical emergencies better as well as refined my ability always to stay calm and achieve efficiency through optimal communication. My first solo flight required immense preparation, which my father, a pilot of twenty-two years, was …
“Does anyone speak Polish?” The director of rehabilitation was concerned about a recently admitted Parkinson’s disease patient who was failing to take her medication and who was anxious and confused following her recent diagnosis and admission to the acute rehabilitation facility where I was a volun…
As a child, I loved maps. This interest developed into a curiosity about the differences and similarities in the way people in these different places on the map lived, ate, spoke, and earned their livelihoods. This awareness of the world and its variety has increased with time and with the substanti…
I am the culmination of many victories and significant challenges along the way, growing up on the south side of Chicago. The perils of our neighborhood plight—violence, prostitution, and debilitating poverty—are vivid in my memory. Thus, I sought to escape, salvation, from a world beyond my reality…
A walking symbol of diversity in the practice of dentistry, I look at least as much if not more like my Haitian father than my French mother; yet, I have the soul, determination, and grit of my mom, who gave 40 years of her life to the Christian missionary work. My appreciation for the Christian eth…
Having spent the first eighteen years of my life growing up in the country of Haiti, almost every memory I have of my homeland is tinged with the knowledge of the tragic realities that transpired, that my family and I lived through, and ultimately left in the hopes of a better life. I was a child, …

As a young man from Lebanon, taking an interest in International affairs comes naturally. We Lebanese live daily through a cauldron of conflict: political, economic, and even physical. We are especially keenly aware, many of us, of the need for clear-headed dialogue rather than fighting. Any many of…
I have grown up in a family of judges and lawyers, and I am sure that this has a great deal to do with the reason why I have chosen to study law as well. I have listened to intense discussions of the law at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, every day as long as I can remember and I trust that this has h…
At only 26 years old, I am a young woman who witnessed terrible violence and social turmoil growing up in my native Russia. Now, having permanently immigrated to the USA and living in Utah for the past two years, I now want very much to study law and to become an attorney. I hope to attend your Law …
A young Egyptian man who has been living in New York City for the past 2.5 years studying English intensively in preparation for your program, I watch in great anguish from afar as so many noble young people are dying in my country, Egypt, in our quest for authentic democracy.
