h guys. i am a first time user. i am a grad. student now in a MA program and am planning to apply to medical school in the next cycle(i applied lsat year and didn't get in). i was hoping to get some volunteer work done but have run into some problems. first, any work at a hospital or free clinic has some sort of time requirement that i just can't fulfill with my being in classes and lab. secondly, the one place that i thought of was the american red cross. however, during my interview i was told that the only thing that i could do, due to time problems, was tutoring homeless children who live in shelters for a few hours a week. do you think that medical schools would think of this as relevant volunteer work since it is not set in a "medical enviornment?" if anyone has some insight on what i should do, i would be grateful!
thanks and good luck to all of you who are applying this year!
