Hey everyone I could use some advice on how my EC's are going (I will be applying next year), such as whether I am missing anything or pretty much anything!
cGPA: 3.99, sGPA: 3.98 (current)
250 Hours Clinical Volunteering (split between two hospitals)
100 Hours Shadowing Physicians (Cardiothoracic surgeon, neurosurgeon, gastroenterologist, ENT)
200 Hours Volunteering as Inventory Chair at Hannah's Socks (a nonprofit organization that distributes socks and underwear to unhoused people in the city)
200 Hours Volunteering at Food for Thought (volunteered at the food pantry and making sack lunches for unhoused people in the city)
100 Hours Clinical Research Volunteering (Mostly helped clinical research coordinators with data collection/organization for submission to the IRB)
Student Senate (two years): served as recording secretary and Caucus Chair for the College of Arts & Sciences
Colleges Against Cancer (two years): served as cancer education chair for one year, committee member for the Relay for Life planning committee for one year, and was a team captain for our residence hall's team one year where we raised $600
Best Buddies (two years): I was paired with an individual with a developmental disability in the community. We would have monthly get togethers where we would go to fun events
Supplemental Instruction Leader (three semesters): I was an SI leader for General Biology 2 for three semesters (plan to continue till graduation)
Peer Mentor (one year): served as a live-in tutor at one of the residence halls. Held 10-15 office hours each week where I tutored freshmen students in calc, bio, chem, anatomy, etc. and worked very closely with the RAs
Desk Worker (one year): worked at the welcome desk of my residence hall for one year, about 15-20 hours each week
Research Experience: started in a biochemistry/molecular biology lab in May of this year and plan to continue until graduation. Will possibly be on several publications (not 1st author) and will give multiple presentations to the group. By the time I am done I will have about a year and half of research experience total.
I think thats it, thank you so much to anyone who reads and/or gives me advice!
