<p>AceMaster, I'm kind of confused about the number of recommendations. I do know that the English teacher has to write something attesting to your written ability, but on top of that, I'm assuming we need the two other ones?</p>
<p>for the hpme program itself, the only rec that is required is the english teacher rec, its fine if u send one or two more im sure, but according to the instructions in the app all u are required to send is an english rec, and sry about that sohni ya ssr is secondary school report</p>
<p>Does anyone know if HPME gets the other recommendations from the Northwestern application?</p>
<p>I want them to see my other recs, but I don't want to flood them with recommendations either.</p>
<p>No, the Northwestern undergraduate application and the HPME application are separate and they do not communicate with each other, except for test scores.</p>
<p>yeah! just got my app this morning...</p>
<p>Tofu: I'm happy for you, lol:)</p>
<p>lol thanks meadle...i had alotta problems gettin nu my card, they didn't get the mail i sent them and they also didn't receive my fax...so i had to call like three times and they extended the due date for me. They received my 2nd fax and i got the app like 4 days later</p>
<p>Tofu...Wow, finally....you have a little bit of a disadvantage in time to get the app in, but hey, i'm no better off...i'm seriously procrastinating on sending it in - for no reason,lol. Hope we meet @ the interview:)</p>
<p>definitely meadle...better yet, hopefully we'll both have a chance to enroll</p>
<p>the part about "personal history" in the essay prompt is annoying me a little bit:</p>
<p>"Complete an essay that includes your personal history, your reasons for wanting to study medicine, and why you are interested in the Honors Program in Medical Education."</p>
<p>Not really sure what they mean by "personal history" and how to segue from that into the "why I want to be a doctor" part of the essay</p>
<p>Be creative. Your personal history SHOULD relate to why you want to become a doctor by discussing how your past experiences have shaped your desire to go into medicine. If you aren't able to talk about that, it doesn't exactly work in your favor.</p>
<p>There isn't one right answer...just a lot of wrong ones ;)</p>
<p>as the Jan 1st deadline nears, i'm wondering how many ppl already sent in their app. i'm no where near ;_; altho i have a rough draft for the medical essay...</p>
<p>sent mine in couple weeks ago!</p>
<p>almost there...</p>
<p>have yet to start.</p>
