Does anyone on here have no out-of-school research experience?
I have spent my summers working full-time (to earn more money than a reseach job would give me) and volunteering (~10 hrs/wk) on the side. I have done a little research in school, but nothing spectacular, and the research was within my major, which is not a hard science (cognitive science, which is more related to psych than anything else).
How much would this lack of an amazing summer experience hurt someone with pretty good scores (say 3.65-3.7 GPA, 35+ MCAT) at, say a top 20 school (such as Pitt)?
Thanks!
