Can I skip the volunteer/shadowing experience and apply to med school anyway? Where do I get this experience?
Can you apply? Sure.Can I skip the volunteer/shadowing experience and apply to med school anyway? Where do I get this experience?
Why do you want to skip volunteering/shadowing? Are you short on free time? Are you in a rush to apply? Do you not know where to volunteer or do you just not want to volunteer at all?Can I skip the volunteer/shadowing experience and apply to med school anyway? Where do I get this experience?
But are the 10+ pubs really required at that point?its probably not mandatory if you have a 4.0/528 + 10 pubs lol
Just 4.0/528 is not likely to land you a guaranteed acceptance. Med schools look for more than just those stats.But are the 10+ pubs really required at that point?
Oh definitely. You'd need some exposure and demonstrated interest in medicine along with volunteering etc. My questions was more like, bare-minimums elsewhere, 4.0/528 are those pubs or any pubs/research really needed?Just 4.0/528 is not likely to land you a guaranteed acceptance. Med schools look for more than just those stats.
That post said if you had 4.0/528 and 10 pubs, you probably don't need volunteering. Which again is debatableOh definitely.

Possible, more likely for MD PhD than for MD, I would think.oh lol i didn't mean 10 pubs exactly. my point was for some schools (but not all obviously) amazing stats + amazing research can override clinical experience
