Hi everyone,

I recently graduated with my master's degree in biology and I am moving on to my next step. I have just received two different job offers- one at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and one at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Institute in Seattle. Both jobs are research technician positions. I am planning to apply to medical school for the 2022 cycle and wanted to find out if anyone had any insight on whether one job might look better for medical school applications. I liked both P.I.'s I met with equally. Any thoughts would be much appreciated!!!

Both are great options. It's a tough call!

Perhaps pick the geography that appeals to you most.
