Is there a minimum number of volunteer hours I should look to achieve? As long as they have been completed prior to interviews will I be ok?

Thanks

I'm also a pre-med who lives in lax (but I go to Winona, sorry ) but I got a volunteer position in the ER at Gundersen and it's awesome! Highly recommend it!
