Default What are your summer plans?

SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
Anyone working, doing lab research or volunteering etc this summer? (It doesn't have to be pre-med related!)

Continue working 30-40 hours a week
Clinical & Non Clinical Volunteering
Shadowing

Hope to continue it over into the fall semester, cut back to about 20-25 hours/wk during school is what I normally have to do.

Chillaxing for another month, then working as an RA for a high school pre-health program, then moving to my new apartment for med school! Pretty relaxing, fun summer I'd say

...You are certainly motivated. But I don't think studying for the MCAT this far in advance is worth it. Just sayin'.

A: You'd be better off buying a shirt that simply said, "Narcissistic ***hole" in giant bold letters. I don't understand why premed clubs sell garbage like this. These shirts are like the shirts from trendy pop-culture clothing stores that have logos from fictitious sporting events: the message means nothing, nobody gives a ****, and both people wear them because they think it separates them from the norm.

40 hours a week of research + 4 hours a week of clinical volunteering. Hopefully I'll get some shadowing experiences in there too. Should be awesome! I'm stoked. Busy, but worth it.
