I'm planning on adding a few more shadowing experiences to my application for this cycle, but in all honesty it is something that I'm lacking overall for my undergraduate experiences, although I do have quite a bit of clinical volunteering (300+ hours).
I'm reaching out for some advice for if I should include shadowing a primary care physician my senior year of high school for my application. I have about 20 hours of this experience, although it was an extremely relevant experience for me to affirm my decision to pursue healthcare. I also understand medical schools do look for applicants that have had this experience so they know that the applicant has taken measures to gain experience into what the field actually looks like.
All in all, should I include shadowing a primary care physician (20 hours;work/activities section) in my application, even though it was done my senior year of high school?
