I really admire your clinical experience. It shows your humility and your willingness to take care of patients' needs.

My sig line tells you all you need to know about clinical experiences:

In your opinion is that adequate patient contact hours? I'm just wondering how much the average applicant has racked up and what most medical schools expect! So If did roughly 35 hours a week for about 3 years that comes out to around 5460 hours of patient contact. And they were very meaningful experiences, I fell in love with the residents and really tried to attend to their psychological needs!! I got to do vitals, blood sugars, meal preparation, medications, inhalers, patches, insulin shots, transfers, showers, etc...I did a lot of different things in both jobs!

Only 5460 hours? Most schools require 5500, minimum. Then you'll be fine :thumbup:

That's plenty. Just relax a bit (a lot). You've got a good application.


I used to do interviews at MCW.
