After much anticipation, duke FINALLY got back to me with their secondary, I knew it was going to be a b!tch to complete, but I also encountered a significant problem, one that I dont think I can work around.
Duke's first short answer question is:
. Please provide us information on the most important community service/volunteer activities in which you have been involved.... How has participation in these activities impacted your preparation for a career in medicine?
Now my problem is that I dont have ANY volunteer activities nor have I done any community service. So what do I do?
Since I have more time on my hands than I'm used to, I'm going to fill out this secondary for kicks and submit too... but as for that question, I am just going to explain to the adcom that I have not done any community service or volunteer activities and that I dont believe them to be necessary to either develop my interest in medicine or have an impact on my decision to pursue a career in medicine.
What do you guys think?
Its a shame too, cuz I actually like Duke's curriculum... thats why I'm not going to let this question stop me
