Shadowing for a Course

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Hello, everyone!

Quick question regarding a course I am taking. A portion of the requirements of the course includes shadowing physicians. Could I count this toward my shadowing hours on applications? I do already have shadowing hours outside of the course and intend to do more on my own, but I just thought I would ask since it is a bit unique that it is part of a course.

Thanks!

I have never heard of a UG course integrating clinical shadowing, that's really cool. Yes, it counts for AMCAS shadowing purposes.

Also, +rep for Khaleesi.

It would definitely count and can be listed with other non-curricular Shadowing without distinguishing the source.
