Is it really bad to leave this section blank? I don't have any research or awards so I'm thinking of just leaving it blank. Is anyone else doing this?

i left both sections blank last year. Those are really additional things that help boost your application, but they really aren't nearly as important as shadowing, volunteering and other extracurricular experience.

Research and awards are not imperative, you have it you do, you dont, then you don't.
