I hope that you all can offer me some words of wisdom.
After working at law firms for three years, I am back to my plan from high school and the beginning of college of pursuing med school. I still have all pre-med requirements to fulfill and can start those in January. Since spring, I had been volunteering at a hospital. A few weeks ago, I relocated from Chicago to central Illinois due to my husband's job.
So now I am spamming every doctor in the area regarding research positions and am doing all that I can to network. In addition, I am looking for part-time work at a local hospital doing something not very substantive, like clerical work.
Will doing these things down in central Illinois impede me? I went to a top-5 university for my B.A. and don't want to short-change myself. The local college in central Illinois where I can fulfill pre-med requirements isn't of the same calibre as the state school that I was thinking of attending in Chicago and which is also connected with the state med school.
Thanks in advance for your help.
