With my cGPA = 3.2 and sGPA =2.7 as well as being an African American woman, I understand that my best chance of acceptance is at schools that are more service based than research based.
By the time I apply next year, I am set to have 150 clinical volunteering hours ( hospital ED and hospice) and 150 non clinical volunteering hours (food bank/soup kitchen)
I was a research assistant in a psychology lab last semester which I’ve continued into this summer.
My question is this - for my senior year, should I drop the psychology lab and instead dedicate that time to clinical or non clinical volunteering to boost one of the two up to 300 hours by the time I apply?
