Hi, everyone,
Does anyone have ideas for a non-traditional student considering applying to medical school who's interested in doing research but, as a music major set to graduate in a month, won't really have science in college? I have no science research experience (I do have humanities research experience) or college science except the introductory class to cognitive science. I did take AP Chemistry in high school, though, and earned a 5 on that exam. Would that help somewhere? I've worked at a health service as a nurse's assistant for two years, did a semester-long ER internship, and plan to become an EMT-B and do more hospital volunteering, but I'm curious to see how I like research and working in a lab as well and don't know if there are programs that would take me. (I would then apply to a post-bac program to get all that science I'm missing.)
Thanks!
