Scribing vs. Clinical Volunteering

[screwedpremed999]

I'm trying to calculate how many hours I've done in each EC "category" (clinical, non-clinical, shadowing, etc.), but I'm not sure whether scribing and clinical volunteering can be lumped into the umbrella of "clinical experience." Does AMCAS/adcom break clinical experience into these sub-groups?

For context, I am volunteering as a scribe at a local free clinic, which is ultimately why I'm stumped.

Thank you!

AMCAS has a designation for community service/volunteer - medical/clinical. That's what you would put your scribing experience under.

That clears a lot of things up-- thank you!
