FINAL PROJECT PROPOSAL: Magnus Opus and Exigence > A Passion Worth Chasing
D, this looks like a peek into REAL medical life, which is important for pre-med students. Narrow the audience to pre-meds, as this will be much easier.
Are you finding a mix of practitioners to read/talk about? I know you will look for diversity and inclusion.
You may want to include Jennifer Gunther, an ob/gyn. And, here is one on Youtube (personal fave of mine). MedLife Crisis guy. His take on MedTube

And, I think you may want to feature UK people, too. I think that world is part of your targets, right?

Working Title: A Passion Worth Chasing
Audience: Anyone in the medical field, particularly students.
Context: As students tend to get shot down from very early on, in their pursuit of a medical degree this would essentially be the journey of a student, on the same path, by a student for a student. Many of the memoirs, biographies etc. out there are by much older physicians, and you cannot always relate to every part of the journey.
Purpose: To give perspective and understanding to current pre-med students on what they are pursuing & how to approach it along with the good, bad & ugly...essentially like 'what to expect when you're expecting'.
Document Type: A combination of research & analysis with a guide
Design/format: The document will start off by exploring the decisions & lives of those already in the field, along with all that comes with it. This will be followed by how to approach this passion knowing what its like through the lens of others, as a student on the path to medicine.
Citation style: This will be a natural language heavy along with APA citation.
