I have a question for any who care to comment. I am hoping to attend med school in 2002, and take the MCAT this comming summer. I volunteer in the imaging (CT/MRI) dept of the local hospital (about 50 hours under my belt now), but obtaining a job there is a little tricky. I have also had a job as a veterinary assistant at an animal hosptial where I recieved alot of clinical experience with small animals (vitals, intubation, taking blood, analyzing feces, feline catsration, etc...). I am POSITIVE that I want to go to med school. I considered vet school for a short while, but being an MD has always been in my heart. This is my question.....do I add my animal experience to my AMCAS application?? I have a fear that it will discount my commitment to human medicine. My premed advisor said that it would be fine, but I would feel better with a little more input. Thanks in advance.
