What are some of the best things you can volunteer for that admissions will like?
Don't join the premed club.
Seconded.

Take that a step further. RIP on the premed kids in your classes. Kills the time spent in class and immediately makes you the professor's favorite student.
Then turn around and become a pre-med too, unexpectedly.
ill try at a free clinic, but here all we can get for volunteer opportunities at a hospital is working in a bake shop or something for free.
these people exploit the fact theres so many students looking to volunteer for something useful at a hospital so what they do is stick them in jobs like this to waste their time.
with a doctor, the best ive been able to find is working as a secretary, no real medical-related experience.

Yes. And remember, Kids: PREMED is NOT a major. "Biology" is your major, or "Art History" or whatever. And go hit it with some hotties while you still can. Put down the orgo notes.

I mean, why don't you just structure your whole f-ing life around what you think the adcom wants?
I love how everyone bashes on the "other" pre-meds in their class, but then everyone posts about how they use the professor's office hours, they stay late in the library, and they like sitting up front. But no, they're not like the other pre-meds. They're covert-ops pre-meds. NOBODY KNOWS that they're pre-med! In fact, they're more like pre-PhD students, they're so smart.
omg my ex gf did that. sitting in class, she'd have 3 differently colored pens, and 3 highlighters to highlight the stuff she'd just written. there'd always be a hurried unclicking, reclicking of pens and highlighters all through class.I was pre-PhD as an undergrad, actually started a PhD program in Biochem but I'm really not that smart...
Who took color coded notes in orgo? That's a sign of a real pre-med

Nah, they just memorize the entire lecture as they hear it, and during the exam, they can just replay it in their heads like Mozart.I was pre-PhD as an undergrad, actually started a PhD program in Biochem but I'm really not that smart...

drug dealer, prostitute, meth-addict
Better yet, join the premed club and bring the other premeds down from the inside. Except only DR. EUGENIC could pull it off....
actually, the hospice was really boring, and it was kinda uneventful when somebody died. That's just me. The ambulance was a blast though.I've actually heard that volunteering at a nursing home or hospice is really great, because you have to have a lot of maturity and compassion to work at these two places?
It takes A LOT to be working with people with terminal diseases, I've known people that cried on their first day of volunteering at a hospice, and can't go back because they are not emotionally strong enough.
Hope this helps.
