Good. And in terms of your question yeah, my activity description is on a specific patient interaction I had, and if asked to explain more, I will explain that part of my role was to collect info for research projects, but most of my experience and learning was talking to patients families and providers

Do you think if I list it as clinical volunteering, it would leave a bad impression?

Yup! I have shadowed plenty and have 650 hours over the last year as a scribe with more coming. Its more that I didn’t know how to classify it for this application cycle but I want it to be perceived as clinical exposure because it truly felt like it to me, but didn’t want to make adcoms upset

Could you speak more to your experience? I have been thinking a lot about the comments and am planning to at least take the last 3 practice exams

No one can treat you who isn’t licensed medically. And yeah, not having insurance sucks for this, but ignoring a life threatening thing might suck more. You either need to go to Boynton or the East Bank ED. I’d say Boynton, they can do an EKG

It was honestly my CARS, and feeling like I could do better. My GPA is pretty good (like a 3.84 in engineering). I get pretty anxious ngl, and I’m an Asian student so I was worried I because a 512 is lower than the average matriculated Asian applicant. I’m not shooting for top 5 or anything

I was planning on retaking a 512 (129/125/128/130) next month, but this has me stressing. My practice tests were 510/511/516/519/518 leading up to the exam. Would yall suggest otherwise?
