Hi everyone
I posted this on the official 2018 AMCAS questions thread but I didn't get a response.
I just have these couple questions:

1) Regarding the activities section, if I volunteered at two different hospitals at different years,do I make two entries for both? Or can they both go under one entry (if so, which contact info should I put for reference?)

2) Regarding poster presentations, I was in research lab at community college and then in another one when I transferred. I have poster presentations from both labs. What is the best way to list this? (The research and posters)
Thank you.

3) If I'm listing a physician I shadowed as an author, do I put his home address or the hospital's address?
Thank you.

I'm no expert, but I'll give you the advice I've seen around here and/or gotten myself to similar questions since no one else has replied.

1) You can list them as one activity, titled "Hospital Volunteer". List the one that has more hours as the main one (so the contact info, address, etc. of that one). Then, in the description, list the other hospital. You can list them as separate activities if it makes you feel more comfortable, though.

2) Same advice as above. You can either list it as "Research/Poster Presentations" under one activity, or split into two. Your choice.

3) Definitely hospital address. You should never give out someone's personal info.

Thank you so much! I appreciate the advice
