Hello all,
Nonprofit attorney who works with underserved populations here. I will be applying to postbac programs soon. I was wondering if any attorneys who have made the switch would be willing to talk about their admissions process? I have read a few threads here so far, but they are generally prospective and discuss whether one should make the jump. All of the threads are only about attorneys at law firms, who are substantially different than my practice.
I have shadowed, thought about it for a year, and feel set on applying to medical school to become a practicing physician. I am interested in the specific application process for a nontrad like myself - my grades are fine and I will work as hard as I can on my postbac classes and MCAT prep. But I'm stumped as to what else I can be doing to prepare for the application process - should I focus on shadowing or clinical volunteering? How many hours should I aim for? Is there anything specific that I should avoid?
Thank you so much!
