When med school adcoms say they would like applicants to have research experience, to what extent do they expect you to have some?
for instance, I will be doing a research elective in a Pharmacokinetics department as an elective next semester. I have not done any research before, and what they would expect me to do is to learn some lab techniques and possibly contribute to solving some problems. So it will last for a semester. After that I can do the same thing in a different department, like Medicinal chemistry or pharmacology.
Is this sufficient for me to brag to adcoms about having research experience that would aid me in getting accepted?!
