I'm a CNA at a rehab (SSU), do medical schools look down working in a rehab facility than a hospital?

In all seriousness, probably not.

So you post a picture to boost your post count? Don't you feel special. If you have nothing to contribute, then don't post.

Lighten up OP, it's funny lol they have 1K+ posts, I'm sure when you get to that many, you just can't take everything too seriously 😉

And I don't think it matters, if anything you will have something different to talk about in your application as compared to others which could help diversify you. CNA, EMT can become common among applications, I would imagine anything "different" about those experiences compared to the norm can only help you.

It was pretty funny actually. You should be laughing too.

Chillax, and welcome to SDN, where sarcasm abounds.


(From LizzyM): If you can smell patients, it is clinical experience. There you go.

You're good op, many SDNers have been accepted into med school CNA experience. It's all about being exposed to sick people.

I don't think so. I've seen other applicants with a CNA background do just fine with their applications. Talk about how the experience has pushed you in the direction of medicine and specifically becoming a physician (rather than a nurse).
