Sorry if this is the wrong board for this, but I'm a premed applying this cycle to USUHS and also of course many other schools. I do have a strong interest in being in the military (Navy I hope) / the motivation is genuine.
Most of my past experience relates to working with elderly people-- I have very strong/unusual ECs in this area. So my personal statement and some of the experience essays are very geared toward this as motivation to pursue medicine/goals in medicine. I feel like I need to do this to really have a strong and coherent app for the civilian schools, but clearly it will not serve me in terms of backing up my military motivations. The problem is there's only one USUHS and without an acceptance yet I need to play the field.
Do people think this would keep USUHS from interviewing me?
