I-Search Reflection
Throughout my life, science has always been my forte. I have been captivated by the complexity of the
human body, and hope to be able to go into a field relating to this. Through this project, I was able to research all
the positions that would be viable for me, and I finally decided on a general or transplant surgeon. It seemed like
the dream job for me, as it combined many of my interests and skills.
Because I had researched this many times before, none of the information came as too much of a surprise
to me, but I was able to look into many other extensions and specialities in this career path. For example, I saw
that neurology and anesthesiology were similar to general surgery. This expanded my school of thought, and
didnt allow for me to limit myself to only what I knew. Even though I know that the schooling process was
rigorous, the prospect of 9+ years of education after high school is daunting, but also strangely exciting at the
same time. What I learned through researching many medical schools was that if the school has a hospital on
campus, they will allow you to do your residency there. This is very important as it allows you to maintain
connections with other people through your entire process to become a medical professional. This is why I would
chose Stanford University for my undergraduate degree, my medical degree, and also my residency. By doing
