I went to see my pre-health advisor and she was "concerned" that none of my 3 most meaningful experiences were clinical or medical. I've done some cool things that I think were much more meaningful than hospital volunteering or shadowing (both of which I have done). My top 3 include basic science research, student leadership/volunteering in non-medical organization, and my work experiences from this past year with a doctor (non clinical).
What's the consensus on this? Is it an unwritten rule that any number of the most meaningful experiences should be related to medicine?
Any help would be appreciated!
