Hello,
I am going to keep this vague. I am a computer scientist and I have the opportunity to have extended business experience (1.5 years) working with a company that services technology needs in healthcare (very large). However, if I were to do this I believe I may need to drop some of my other ECs like Research and teaching (both of which I have a year and large hours dedicated to it per week).
Would I be worth my time to drop or diminish these ECs in order to pursue the employment opportunity? Assume my app is competitive to the very top. Would this significantly hurt MD PhD chances as well? (being out the lab vs industrial experience)
Thanks.
