I am currently an undergraduate student and recently finished my first year. What should I do within these four years to prepare me for medical school? I talked to my advisor and she said that grades and research ae the most important. But there has to be other things I should do, right? What kinds of things can I do this summer? Are there pre-med internships available? If so, how can I search for them? Thanks a lot in advance!
What kind of things should I do to prepare for medical school?
Your going into a field that is very competitive in some schools the interview process can turn you down for school many times before you get there. I just helped a friend get into med school and here are some of the things he did to get in.
Volunteer! preferably with a first aid group senior centre etc.
Teach especially first aid Join St John Ambulance brigades for both of these opportunities. This will give you hands on training medical first responder ticket and they are always looking for people to help.
When you start getting close to putting in your application for acceptance to a school start doing Video interviews. Have somebody play the part or several people play the part of a panel of interviewers asking you questions about ethics, racism, conflict management, stress management etc.
You do not need to have perfect answers these questions are to find out how you will cope as DR if accepted.
Good luck I hope that helps
