HUGE RED FLAGS Medical School Adcoms Hate...

[@miriamheart]

Would being a in house caregiver (not for a family member) count as clinical experience?

[@MichaelMinhLeMD]

It does! See this article :) students-residents.aamc.org/aspiring-docs-fact-sheets-get-experience/five-ways-gain-experience-without-shadowing

hello, how do you recommend dealing with not having longitudinal ECs? I have had to jump between multiple ECs in research and clubs because I struggled to find what resonated with me, but I can connect them with a common theme. Do you have any tips?

[@MichaelMinhLeMD]

Once you find what did resonate, were you able to stay with it for some time?

[@Hello-mh2vr]

@@MichaelMinhLeMD Yes I was, but I only started late junior year, is that okay?

Hey man I’m starting uni at ucsd starting next fall and I literally have no idea what to do/expect to be a successful premed. Do you do coaching by any chance ??

[@MichaelMinhLeMD]

Why does the system weed out so many potential doctors? Is itecause we can’t afford it? What if they can afford it and they are still so young? Sorry for beingslightly flippant and saucy!
