It depends on how important the activity is to your candidacy. And if it’s not that important, consider whether you can leave it off entirely, or just use yourself as Contact for the entire space.
Hobbies don’t require a Contact. Organization is an elective space. You don’t need to fill it in.
Thank you!
a) of the above choices would be my preference.
Thank you Catalystik
If the majority of the hours you'll claim are related to the care of people who'd be viewed as "patients," you can tag the space with the Clinical label. For complete transparency, I'd hope you'll comment in your narrative about the percent split with other duties. But honestly, I can't imagine that you don't have a lot to say about both aspects of your job, and you'd have far more space for discussion if you use two slots and call one of them Nonclinical.
Are they related, ie did they come from the same dataset or project? Where did the abstract appear: conference booklet or in the supplement of a national/regional journal and having a PMID#? Are you referring to a poster and/or podium presentation?
It's important to give credit where it is due (research being a team sport, and all), so acknowledge the author who is the presenter.
1) Most group all Hobbies into one space, but if you have a lot to say, using two spaces is acceptable.
Yes, you can put them both (article with PMID# + CritCare abstract) in a Publications space. Both presentations can be cited in the same space since they are related to the published abstract.
60 characters are also allowed for Organization name.
Amazing thanks!
Ideally, yes. Perhaps you could use the organizer? If all else fails, use yourself as the Contact. Regardless, keeping a log would create an artifact that would help verify your involvement.
I think it's worth including on your list. You might estimate the percent of the ten hours that you shadowed the DNP and include that in your description (vs the time spent with pediatricians, referred to as "various physician staff" rather than by name). The DNP could be your Contact.
You might enter a 0 or a 999 or 9999 (meaning, hours unknowable).
Done.

Another option would be to tack mention of the upcoming job onto the end of another Research entry. You could then give updates to schools as the project matures, for those that allow them.
Are both Paid Employment or both Volunteer?
One was a paid Internship the other a paid Fellowship!
If you want to group them, the tag you pick needs to apply to both activities. "While Paid Employment-Not Medical/Clinical" could be used, but The "Other" designation is better. Give the space a name that applies to both, like, Clinical Programs & Community Development Intern & Fellow. Header Datespan can be all encompassing. (You get up to 60 characters). In the description mention the Paid aspect.
As you can't assume one reader will have access to all the Activities entries or in what order they'll appear for each school, the acronym can't be defined in only one space.
I think the entire activity described is laudable. If there are parts of the US that would consider this unethical, I have not heard of them. Are there groups that tout feline reproductive freedom?
Yes, you don't want to mention the same award in two different slots. It would be confusing. Might all of them fit in the same MM activity space? It would help keep the recognitions in context if they stay with the affiliated experience. Alternatively, mention the particularly meaningful award only in the affiliated activity space, but keep the rest elsewhere.
No. Everything in the application need not be connected to medicine. You're allowed to enjoy a variety of unrelated activities. without a negative impact on your candidacy. That's not to say an interview question might not ask the question you allude to (as some interviewers like to frame "challenge" questions to put you on the spot), but you can easily parry it with a confident response that shows you've thought about it.
Only one is required for the 2022 application year, also.
Thanks! I'm not sure if they will fit in the MM activity space but I'll try it out. Do you think it would be a good option to describe the award in the activity dedicated to the awards? That would be the only award I add any description to. I would then be able to talk about another aspect of the activity in the MM space.
You might try it out both ways to see if they all fit in one or the other, with sufficient description to support the importance of the particularly meaningful award.
If you have the space, list them, focusing on the college-based requirements for annual renewal. If they were highly selective, give some indication of that if you have the statistics.
Before I finished reading your post, I was thinking that this experience that you have no space to discuss adequately would be perfect for appropriate Secondary prompts.
For most secondary prompts (challenge, failure, adversity, diversity, community service, leadership, etc.) my other activities offer much more significant anecdotes, both in terms of my narrative and just the objective contribution of the activity. Would the anything else essay be an appropriate place to put this/would that be a beneficial way of wording it?
