More than anything else, I appreciated the opportunity to interact with other Christian medical students. I was inspired by their interest in attending the conference and the quality of their research. Additionally, the judges gave quality feedback — evidence of their genuine interest in my work and in me as a developing healthcare professional. Overall, the session was well organized, engaging, and fun!
