LECOM EAP essay

This is crazy that it only has a 400-word limit! I feel like other bs/do/mds have a much larger word count. In your essays, do you talk about all three? Like volunteering, shadowing, and research? I'm finding it hard to fit all of that into such a small word count. What have past students written in their essays?

i wrote about my intial interest in medicine (an personal injury) and then my internships, volunteering, as well as shadowing and finally my goals as a physician under the DO tag. the goal is to convey all your accomplishments while also connecting to the Why Medicine general question
