Hi all,
I'm a relatively new pre-health advisor at a mid-large university. Honestly looking through these forums has been tremendously helpful already!
My question is: when it comes/came to getting shadowing/clinical volunteer experiences, how much of it do you feel is up to you & how much would you expect an advising office to help you make connections? So many students come into my office expecting me to hand them names of doctors they can shadow, but time after time I have to explain that it's up to them to make the connections & get the experiences. Is this just a thing with the students I've encountered or am I missing something?
Thanks!
