Anyone in here looking get into the medical field? My goal school is Stanford but I'm leaning sort of towards UCI. Amy recommendations? I have to do some form of research under a doctor but I'm totally lost.
Primary care, specialty, or post-graduate research?
I'm currently attending a Community college and am keeping up with the grades, 4.0 GPA. But the thing is the requirements to get into a med school in CA is 2 years volunteer @ hospital, and some form of research. Just wanted to know what direction I could go.
Volunteer work is easy. My friend didn't even have a wide variety of volunteer work and he got into UCSD Medical School. He would go and sit with senior citizens in their room to keep them company and he'd work on his homework and talk to them. I think he also did a little bit of shadowing, which should be easy enough to find. The quality of your volunteer work is more important that meeting a time requirement.
Also, don't think that your volunteer work has to be limited to the medical field. You don't have to dedicate all your volunteer hours to being in a hospital. They just want to see that an applicant has a genuine interest in helping others. If you interview, they are going to ask you about your experience, so you should try to pick something you'll enjoy doing so you can talk passionately about it. If you like working with kids, and you have a children's hospital in your area, look into the requirements for becoming a volunteer there. For children's hospitals there is usually a bit more work involved in becoming a volunteer, so if that sounds interesting you should look into it right away so you can get started.
The research aspect can be covered when you transfer from CC to a university. Just get in touch with someone in the science department once you're a student there and find out which professors are doing research and see who you can help. It's all extracurricular, so you usually just have to be a student there and willing to help to get in. That shouldn't be difficult at all. You might even get lucky and get to be part of something that gets published, which is always a bonus on your application.
For the record, I've never seen a medical school in California explicitly state a time requirement for volunteer work, where did you get that information from?

I really dislike how some families can get full rides to school and claim to have a low family income while they have million of dollars in property investment or offshore accounts.
how do you guys feel about taking 5 classes a semester? i fucked up my spring semester freshman year, took this past fall semester off, but came back to school this spring semester for 2 classes. when i pass, i should have accumulated 15 credits altogether but i wanna get my AA asap so i can enlist in the air force which is why i plan on taking 5 classes for the next 3 semesters. i'm only 19 turning 20 but i feel like time is running out which is why i'm really trying to bust my ass. am i just paranoid? i want to be the few of my friends that will actually be successful and establish their self as an adult /rant
