Practice Vision Essay
I suppose that it’s exceedingly difficult for any incoming medical student to decide exactly in which areas they would prefer to specialize. For me, particularly, I feel that the decision has been one that has been extraordinarily difficult to reach. There is truly a multitude of different areas in which I feel that I have more than sufficient interest to succeed. After quite a bit of time, however, and much careful deliberation and incisive thought, I have reached the conclusion that I would like to do my residency in internal medicine and my fellowship in cardiology. There are myriad reasons for why I arrived at this conclusion.            First, and probably foremost, is my innate curiosity and interest in both of these areas of medical study. I have always been fascinated by the biological functions of the human body and I feel that the study of internal medicine would allow me to take an all-encompassing approach to the study of the body, not limiting myself to one specific area. The study of cardiology, on the other hand, would allow me to focus my expertise on one specific area that has always intrigued me.            On the other hand, I feel that it would probably be rather foolish, and possibly even negligent, to choose areas of study based exclusively on one’s personal interest. Instead, I also carefully considered my abilities and feel that I possess a talent-set that would easily lend itself to both fields.
