Hi everybody,
Today I had a meeting with my ex-advisor for him to write me a rec letter. All was great until he asked me: "What do you do other than volunteering and shadowing that would make you a good candidate for medical school?"
I had no idea how to answer the question!! I brought up the fact that I work full-time and don't have much time to devote to things so I try to expose myself to as much medicine that I can. He wasn't looking for community service, research, volunteering & shadowing, hobbies, sports, or a story of why I'm a good candidate. I'm really stumped by this!
