How can you know if you like EM because you like the specialty or because you just get to do a lot as a med student?

M3 here. Been interested in EM for some time now. With VSAS around the corner, I need to seriously decide whether or not I should pursue EM. One thing I've been thinking about as of late is if my interest in the field right now has been a function of the fact that I have been able to do a lot during my shifts (I've done 15 shifts), such as H&Ps, present to attendings, updating patients on results, and helping with ultrasound or some minor procedure. To phrase another way, I think EM... How can you know if you like EM because you like the specialty or because you just get to do a lot as a med student?
