Hello all,
If I am pre-med, does the volunteering I did in a dental clinic still count as clinical volunteering, or is it now non-clinical?
If I spent a week shadowing all healthcare personnel (including the doc), do I just list the doctor as the reference? Does this go in a category outside of shadowing?
Can I include the few years of Latin I studied in high school under basic understanding of a language?
One of my schools does not do electronic transcripts. Has anyone had experience sending official transcripts by mail?
If I got a 123 (37%) on Verbal reasoning, would including my GRE scores be worthwhile or hurt even more? Verbal Reasoning: 68th percentile, Analytical Writing 58th percentile, Quant: 70th percentile taken about 2 years ago. I can pick just one section to highlight, but I'm fairly certain they will see the entire score report once I send it.
Finally, if one of my parents spoke one language and the other spoke English, and I know one just slightly less than the other, would I list one as native and one as advanced? I did pretty much all of my education in America (part in ESOL). However, I'm sure if I were to conduct the interview in the other language, it would be my American accent and 1-2 grammatical mistakes that might suggest I'm not native.
Thank you so much!
