MD Shadowing on AACOMAS?

[turkaglew]

Did anyone list MD shadowing in AACOMAS? I just said I have shadowed physicians, both MD and DO....

Sound about right?

I went into specialties as far as what I had shadowed. Can't hurt to let them know you've seen a broad range of specialties.

I did. Worked for an M.D., shadowed two other MDs and a DO, and listed them all under a heading "Shadowing Experience."

Where on the application did you put this? And are we supposed to submit a resume/CV with the primary or do schools ask for that with the secondary?

Do you guys also put down the duration of dates and the amount of hours you shadowed for each physicians?

No.

I just did roughly the first time I shadowed to the last time. Or current if that's an option--I forget.

And total hours of shadowing. Again, I'd mention what all you've seen, maybe how it's impacted you---but breaking it down into hours and dates for each---they really wont care, and you eat up space for the description.

Oh sweet. Thanks man. I thought it might not look so good if I get all my shadowing done after I graduate. I guess I'll just put down the total hours.

I put on BOTH, one MD and one DO.
