<p>Could someone explain what is meant by "Personal History" in the University of Miami Dual Degree HPM essay? Here is the prompt:</p>
<p>"Give a personal history of yourself, your reasons for wanting to study in your chosen feld, and why you are interested in the Dual-Degree Honors Programs at the University of Miami."</p>
<p>I have the last two parts down (for the most part), but what is meant by personal history? Do they want your life's story or what?</p>
<p>dude, im having problems with this part too.</p>
<p>Which ECs in your life or which events in your life have channeled you toward Medicine.
When did you realize that this is what you would like to pursue?
How have you developed or shown commitment to Medicine in your HS years? What about Medicine draws you to it?</p>
<p>Write about yourself and your passion for this area.</p>
<p>In addition, you could also end the story with where you envision yourself to be in 10 -15 years from now.</p>
