Answer: You need to draw from personal experiences that convinced you to study medicine

Explanation:

These can include:

1. An instance when you saw a medical personnel save someone's life. This can be the life of a stranger on a flight or in a park or someone dear to you. It is better to think of someone dear to you that was quickly saved due to the presence of a medical professional.

2. An instance when you were impressed by how a medical personnel handled a health scare.

A shadowing experience is when you dedicated time to see what working in medicine really looks like in the real world. You should use this part of your essay to show that you know about the less desirable aspects of the job (from what you saw while shadowing a professional) and it has not deterred you from pursuing a career in medicine.
