What medical speciality or field currently interests you, and what have you done so far to get experience in the field?

There is no right answer to this question. However the candidate should demonstrate some forward progress in regards to their perceived dedication to Medicine as a career. Experience does not have to be hospital based, volunteer work, expeditions etc will suffice. The question is more of a mentality question to see whether the student has actually made a informed decision to study Medicine or has been pressured by outside influences or simply there for the name and mystic of the degree.
