Hello. Looking for any insight to see how I am stacking up when it comes to my ECs. For context, I am a non-trad going back for a DIY post-bacc this Fall and hope to apply MD/DO in a few years. GPA will be below average for both (3.2~). No MCAT score yet.
Leadership (Feel like I’m grasping in this category.)
- Current - Weekend Case Management Manager - A lead case manager on the weekends.
- 6-7 years ago - Involved in an indie record label.
- 8 years ago- Was involved in a band with multiple roles.
Healthcare Experience:
- Full-time Rehab Tech (approx. 10,400 hours) while completing a bachelor's degree.
- Hospice Social worker (Licensed Bachelor of Social Work)- I was PRN so maybe about 100 hours.
- Hospital Social Worker / Case Manager - (Full time). Lots of experience with discharge planning, patient and family meetings (goals of care, need for community resources, etc), coordinating resources and working with every type of possible healthcare professional.
- Sole social worker on the Cancer Committee at my hospital. Helped develop plans in the community for cancer patients to receive discounts at local farmer markets for healthier food options.
Research:
- Helped a Social Work professor with a community needs assessment for a local non-profit clinic. My name is on the report, but I’m not sure if this would count for research.
Volunteer:
- Volunteered at a local men’s homeless shelter. One to two days per week.
