Hello!
I currently work as a CNA and a Medical Scrub in a local hospital. I have made connections and work under nurses and physicians. A lot of people in the hospital have said that those 2 jobs will help me a lot in my pre-med resume and to get ready to medical school, because of the 1-on-1 patient care experience as a CNA and the medical terminology knowledge I gained as a Medical Scrub.
I am thinking of getting my Surgical Technologist degree at a local college so I can also have experience working with surgeons. What are your thoughts on that? Worth it, good idea or not?
I am only a freshman at a huge public university in the midwest, where I will be/am taking my pre-med classes.
Thank you all!
