<p>I am currently working on the common app since I am applying to RPI's bs/md. There is a short answer that has the following prompt: In the space provided below, please briefly elaborate (150 words or fewer) on one of your activities (extracurricular, personal activities, or work experience).</p>

<p>I chose to write about Model United Nations (a club which I'm the president) rather than any of my medical experience. RPI also has an essay on their supplement that asks your reasons for pursuing a career as a doctor. Instead of killing my medical work by writing about it over and over I thought I would just discuss it in the RPI supplement essay. What is your opinion on this? Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>i think its good to write about something other than medicine since they already have a question for that (shows how you are a well rounded person). Tangytart, do you have link to the RPI Bs/md program app? (sorry for asking in this thread.)</p>
