Hi everyone, I've come across a couple questions while working on my ERAS application, and was hoping for some informed input.
For starters, I'm entering a research assistant position that I held during my masters program. It was paid, but was also research...so where does it go? 'work' or 'research' or both?
Is it generally recommended to complete the non-required fields? I have no idea how many hours per week I worked on some of these things - either it was really variable or too long ago to recall a realistic number.
I've heard not to bother including undergraduate research and work experiences unless they were really substantial - is this the general consensus?
Should the description sections be in prose or bullet points or what?
Am I right in entering student group involvement in medschool as 'volunteer' experiences?
Thanks, and sorry, I'm sure most of this has been covered at some point.
