I am curious if there are any non trads out there who have fulltime jobs and fulltime school for prereqs and have to find a way to add volunteer work and shadowing. How do you do it? I am feeling a little overwhelmed.
I intend to apply for the next cycle and should have the basic prereqs and MCAT complete by summer next year, after which I plan to take some upper level science courses while my application is processed.
I have to work full time because I need to support myself. I don't think I should wait until my school schedule eases out a little to shadow and volunteer because by then I will be submitting my application and it seems like I need to put something in there for shadowing and volunteer hours. I don't want to wait untill the last minute.
I have a wonderful volunteer opportunity open to me starting next month doing work I really want to be a part of, but I am wary of adding it to my already full work and school schedule. Add shadowing and I just feel panicky.
Any advise would be appreciated.
