When NOT to include a work/activity?

[urd0rkk]

Hey guys,

jw what your thoughts are... I am wondering if I should include being a member of a premed honor society for 1 year as a work activity... I really didn't do much except for go to some few socials and meetings, watch videos on the medical profession (but I can't recall anything anymore for sake of interviews or whatnot), and a UCSF field trip (which only showed me that UCSF is a great school...).

I guess I'm just wondering if its worth mentioning, in the case that the future interviewers try to milk the activity for more than what it was worth personally in my experience?

Experiences and thoughts?

Thanks!

Also you are in the wrong forum.

This is not an issue for medical students. Moving to Pre-Allo.

Don't bother. Didn't amount to much.l
