Hey,
Would you guys put ANY high school stuff in your work/activities section? I'm having a hard time deciding with a couple things. For instance, should I put:
1. National Merit?
2. Clinically-related experience (that was NOT continued in college)?
3. Leadership roles and/or awards?
I made my decision to become a doctor based on experiences I had in high school and chose to largely hold off on activities during college in order to focus on my weak points, notably, academics. I haven't decided what to do about the essay(s) yet, but I know that I'll definitely be discussing my high school experiences during any interviews I get since they played a large role in shaping my decision to become a doctor. Given all that, should I include it in the primary app or is that silly?
