Hi!
So I know this might seem like a stupid question, but I'm not sure exactly how to fill out the experience description section for AMCAS. For example, one of my experiences was that I was a research intern in a lab at a pretty prestigious research institute. I marked it as one of my most meaningful experiences, and I know exactly what I want to write for that section.
I'm not sure about the experience description section, though. Do I literally just write what I did in the lab?
Also, as far as shadowing, do I group it all together into one activity, or split it? For instance, I shadowed one place for almost 4 months and practically was on the verge of working there, and then did the normal shadowing in a bunch of different specialities. Should this all be grouped into one entry, 2, or one for each speciality...?
