this question is applicable to both my own situation and im sure others wonder the same thing (seeing as this was inspired by another thread).
so, what do you think?
and for my personal question. By application time, i will have done research for 2.5 years (summers included), thats a definite. but i have yet to do much volunteering or any shadowing (sophomore). with research and other activities, its difficult to consistently drive over to a hospital to volunteer, especially when half the time i wont be seeing/experiencing much of anything. shadowing definitely seems like the most time effective possibility, and i have lots of opportunities. does no volunteering at all bring up a red flag? should i at least get in 50 hours somewhere (i'll do it if it could one day cost me an acceptance)? thanks
