For AMCAS purposes, if you didn't interact with current patients, it's not clinical (even if you were in a clinical environment, like a hospital or clinic). So:
If you feel both experiences are strong enough to stand on their own, and if you have enough space, you can use two spaces. If you prefer to keep all the leadership for that club grouped together, you'd give it an all inclusive title, like Founder (if you were in charge, otherwise Co-Founder) and Officer of Pre-Health Organization, or Leadership Roles Related to XXXX Club.
Did the university recognize the event(s)? What was the umbrella organization under which you created the tour? Who helped you, or was it a solo initiative? Who marketed it? How did students sign up? How many times did tours depart? Did it cost money? Were you paid?
1) It is Employment, but I think most would suggest you call it -Not Medical/Clinical. You might then mention your role in dealing with clients, among your other duties. You could also suggest the %time you are interacting with folks at the window compared with your other roles and let the readers decide for themselves that it is clinical, or not, based on that.
I agree that sounds awkward to mention a publication when you weren't named. And it would sound worse to state that you weren't given an authorship position. Best to stick to your contributions, after mentioning the focus of the research.
I agree you should put the most recent contact in the header. The other contact information can be included in the narrative box as you describe the other two positions.
I suggest writing out the the title without the PI abbreviation.
1) Abroad experiences can be listed under "Other." The snorlking could be mentioned there, or put in another space under "Hobbies".
I don't see this as enhancing your candidacy for med school, unless you gained some remarkable insights that are atypical for someone of that age. But perhaps you see it differently?
Either Observation or Shadowing of Primary Care Physician would be fine. Or you could name the doc's specialty, like Shadowing of Family Practice Doctor.
1) Its fine to split out roles with the same organization when they're strong enough to stand on their own.
1) "Other" is a good category to use when describing a curricular experience.
Yeah, that what I was thinking. Thanks!
A primary care doc can be a pediatrician, internist, OBGYN, or family physician. I think being specific would be good.
1) Consider using the Repeated feature to differentiate between Completed dates and hours and future dates and hours. This will only work if your first end date and second start date are the same month and year.
The teaching of religiously-based classes is not an unusual inclusion. The faith-based construction team should certainly be entered. Be vague about the organization if it makes you more comfortable, but if you choose to be specific, I can't imagine it being held against you (at least not in the USA midwest, where I'm based). Proselytizing activities, OTOH, would likely work against you at the majority of med schools, where an appreciation of diversity is a common theme.
Either your HS Registrar-equivalent or the organizer of the competition.
I think you have plenty to say about what you've already accomplished to set things up, so go for it.
Adcomms will roll their eyes if you call it a Volunteer activity, but if you handle it right, it might come across OK if you use the Other tag for it. Some might still think it iffy (like including parenting as an EC), but if it's meaningful to you, and you feel it adds to your candidacy for med school, you might decide to include it regardless. Have your premed advisor review the entry for reassurance.
A one is fine, with a note in the narrative that you have no idea of the number of hours but that during the college years it varied from 0 to 5 hours per week. Or 99, or 999, or even 9999, depending on what might be closest to your most conservative estimate. A 99999 choice is impossible and shouldn't be used, so I agree with you there.
1) Yes. Then in the MM essay one can write anecdotes, insights, impact, and maybe future plans.
Sorry, I snuck in a few questions in my original post...Bad etiquette?
You asked if it was good to add a little bit of information about skills, etc, to which I said, "Yes."
2) If you are fluent in a language other than English, that can be mentioned in another part of the application. If you repeatedly acted as a translator, that would be worth entering as an Experience. The category would depend on what capacity you acted as translator: employment, volunteer, artistic endeavor, Other, etc.
