Hey guys,

I'm in the process of filling out AMCAS and I'm now at the Work/Activities section. I just wanted to hear your opinions on whether I should include the bookstore job I had my Freshman year. My friend says he is not going to include his past job as a waiter because it is "unrelated", but I kind of feel like including my bookstore job because it would give them the picture that I was busier that semester, not just doing classes. Is this a bad idea? What do you guys think?

Much appreciated fellas 😎

More than likely, it definitely wouldn't hurt you but it probably won't help you either. If you have more than 15 activities, than perhaps consider leaving that one out.
