Hey everyone,
So my school offers work-study programs to mostly the Honors students, and it's a 4-year deal that pays 1500 a semester.
I picked a lab job. I work in lab-prep for the intro bio program, and the extent of my job involves prepping solutions, washing/drying tubes, etc.
I'm pre-med, and I feel like this job is a waste of 10 hours a week of my time. I'm not learning anything about medicine, and I would rather volunteer or work for something mroe involved in my future career.
With that said, I heard people say that undergrad-research is good to have. Does this lab job count? Should I look elsewhere for experience that suits my future career in medicine best?
