WVSOM

Have you ever connected with LMSA student officers at medical schools on your wishlist?

I would prefer more non-clinical volunteering; up to 150 hours at your food bank minimum as well as activities you can continue off-campus. What are the opportunities you have pursued after graduating, especially over the last 2 years?

@Mr.Smile12 I have not yet connected with LMSA officers at those schools. But that is something that I will definitely look into.

That is definitely understandable. After graduating is basically when everything on my resume has been accomplished with the exception of my on-campus job experience. All of my volunteering and chief scribe experience has been within the last 2 years.
