Hi, i'm a freshman, with biology as my major with a focus on Pre-Med. I have a few questions that I would really appreciated if somebody answered. 1) Do medical schools actually care about volunteer work or hospital internships? (I go to school in Baltimore, about 15 min. from Hopkins, and I'm thinking about doing volunteer work there) 2) Has anyone ever heard of/participated in a program where you follow a doctor around for a day, to really see what it is truly like? 3) Is a 3.5 gpa the min. for any given med. school in the U.S.?(Hopefully I will get a better GPA then that, but I'm curious) 4) And finally, does it truly matter where you go to med. school? (besides the fact that one school might be more prestigous than another, wouldn't subject matter be the same?) Thank you very much for your help, I truly appreciate it!
