They will see the gap in your application. What are you going to fill it with? Also, bear in mind, if you were paid for this work, this will show up during a background check (after admissions) and you may have to explain it then (i.e., why you didn't share it before).
Hey there.
So I recently had to leave my research lab that I had been working in for two years. This means I cannot get a recommendation for research and really can't talk too much about the research for applications.
Would this significantly affect my chances at getting into medical school?
I wasn't really getting too much from the experience. They would ask me come to in randomly and there was never really any consistency with the lab experience. I wasn't paid for it - I took it for credit. I don't know how much they can write for me, but I can certainly ask. I just feel like on an interview, I would have to tell them that the experience did not give me much to gain. I didn't exactly leave yet, but it seems like it just isn't worth my while.
