I am a junior at Marquette University in Milwaukee,Wi, and I am pre-med. My main worry is that I dont have enough clinical/research experience, and I was wondering if anyone could give me advice. I have shadowed a ER doctor and had a private question and answer session with a neurosurgeon. I have about 6 months working as a clincal research assistant at the VA, and I will have about 1 year volunteering at a local ER. The reason that I have so little is because I have to work around 30 hours a week to put myself through school. This and my normal course load takes up most, if not all of my time. I have been trying to find a job in the health care field, but cannot find anything right now. I don't have the money to take a EMT class or a CNA class, and I don't know what to do. I have a 3.73 cGPA and a 3.63sGPA, but I am hoping those go up by the end of the year (I haven't taken the MCAT yet). I was wondering if medical schools would take into account the amount of hours that I work a week because since it is retail, it doesn't have much to do with health care. I have been there four years, and with the bad economy it is the only job i can find.
