When I was a medical student I joined SDN and now wanted to get back involved. I am a 33 year old D.O. practicing internal medicine in Pittsburgh, PA. I am board certified by both the ABIM and AOBIM in internal medicine. I remember my journey getting there. I recently uncovered by ERAS application essay as I was cleaning out my old med school lap top (I graduated LECOM Bradenton in 2008). I hope that what I have to say may be an inspiration to you.
I wish you good luck as you begin to gather physicians to write letters of recommendation for you, as you await your Deans letter and then comprise your own essay to gain the attention of Program Directors and those reviewing your files. Remember, as a D.O. to reach out to your osteopathic roots. In retrospect it was the influence of other D.O.s that helped me to reach my goal of becoming a practicing physician.
I wish you all the best of luck in the application process. Below is a link to my essay for my ERAS application.
