I have spent 160 hours volunteering in the ER and 225 hours volunteering at a rehab center. I want to stop volunteering. Is my number of hours spent volunteering sufficient or should i continue?
Oh please. Everybody on here is soooooooooo altruistic that no one has ever thought about adding volunteer gigs on med applications solely because it looks good. Plenty of people do it to play the admissions game and they have no problems sounding "passionate" about it during interviews.
Gimme a f-cking break.

Quit volunteering at those places and find one you enjoy. Don't be fake and volunteer just because you think it looks good, that's a total pre-allo move.
actual reason of doing volunteer is to serve other people but not to build your resume (or application). find what you like to do first

To be more honest on this part, volunteer at the hospital is to expose yourself into healthcare career too. it's not about admission. the admission is just part of your life lol. "Why did you volunteer at this hospital?" "because I want to make my application looking good"
C'mn gimme a freaking break. You can say better than that.
