Would it be worthwhile to get an article not related to academics published in a national magazine?

Probably, unless your article is about how much you hate medicine or something.

Assuming it's not just a comment to the editor or something like that and actually a full fledged article, I'd imagine it would go a long way in making you "unique" and appear well-rounded.

I wrote for two publications, news and entertainment. It's been a major conversation topic in interviews and I think it helps differentiate yourself from candidates who have a similar score profile. I'd stress how the communication skills you built are transferable to medicine.

Good luck!
