Hey, guys! So I'm truly in a tough position right now. I'm debating whether to join my hospital's scribe program, which is a 2 year commitment to work 20 hours a week(two 10 hour shifts) or shadow a physician I know once a week for six hours and volunteer at my hospital for 4 hours once a week. The scribe position will pay me $10 an hour whereas, I will not be paid for my volunteer or shadow experience as obvious.
Regardless of which of the two I choose, I will be also taking a rigorous course load of study.Here's my schedule:
Junior
Fall:
1) Organic Chemistry 1(4)
2) Molecular Cell Biology(3)
3) Molecular Cell Biology Lab CTW(3)
4) Intro to Human Physiology(3)
5) American Government(3)
Spring:
1) Organic Chemistry 2 (4)
2) Organic Chemistry 1 Lab (2)
3) Human Physiology (3)
4) Microbiology (3)
5) Genetics (3)
As much as I would love to do the scribe program,the course load will be tough but i don't know if 20hours a week will hamper my gpa? As far as clinical experience goes, I understand that the scribe program will give me an amazing clinical experience and shadowing experience at the same time. I don't know which of the two I should pursue? Help!
