Hey everyone.
I have a question about if you guys think I need to do additional medical/clinical volunteer work.
As of now, I have many hours in shadowing, 240 hours of paid summer medical work in a hospital, and years of non-clinical volunteering work as well.
Looking at MSAR, I see that many schools show that over 90% of accepted applicants have medical volunteer work.
My question is, does my medical paid work count in this volunteer category, even though it was not exactly volunteer? I feel like I got more hospital experience than a volunteer would, but should I do additional non-paid work for this category?
Please let me know!
Thanks.
