I am anthropology major and I have the opportunity to do a 1-2 week field school (basically an archaeological dig) that involves a research component. There are longer programs available but unfortunately I am taking summer courses so I can only do a short one.
It is relatively costly, ~1,000 and although I am definitely interested in pursuing this it is kind of a hassle to miss work and be gone for that long. My main drive would be the ability to use this to fill the research gap in my medical school application.
What are people's opinions of this? I know it is short but would it count towards research? Or would med schools tend to disregard something of this nature? Any tips would be appreciated...
