The essay is very important and is your opportunity to discuss your reasons for applying to medical school based on your own personal experiences and in addition gives you the opportunity to explain to the Admissions Committee any questions that might come up when they review your application. The essay also is an opportunity for you to discuss your strengths and weaknesses and to discuss your reasons for a career change if relevant to your application.
