Most of us have heard about the "extra" stuff you should do to make your application stand out when you apply to residency but how in the world do medical students have time to be active in extra curricular activities while in school? You hear things about people belonging to & be active in tons of groups & community service, networking with tons of attendings before they start rotations (that one makes my head hurt) etc.
The research options I can understand, you can do it in the summer or some schools allow it as an elective for credit.
Appreciate any current med students to share how people accomplish this. Since I am a current med school applicant, pardon any inherent ignorance on this subject.
