MSF and MiM Long Term goal Essays

I'm in the process of writing the MiM/MSF essays and they all want a career goal essay. My question is saying that I want to do healthcare IB to narrow a focus? My internship in banking was in healthcare M&A, my undergraduate degree is in biology, I love the industry, but is it too narrow? Should I say I want IB more generally? Often these essays ask what you would do if you couldn't get your dream job, should I speak about things withing the same function (FP&A, Corporate Banking, Corp fin) or the same industry (F500 Healthcare, Insurance)?

You could say you want to work in the financial healthcare field. That could include F500 at a medical/pharma company, IB in healthcare, public finance related to hospitals/healthcare, working at an insurance company, etc. For the MiM application you could expand into healthcare consulting, working at a hospital, etc.

I wouldn't say only healthcare banking since that is too narrow, but you can still be focused while allowing for a myriad of options.
