- What extracurriculars do I need tied to research, clinical work, shadowing, volunteering, and leadership.
- Beyond solid grades and a strong MCAT score, what can I do to differentiate myself from the crowd to get accepted into med school?
There will also be Live Q&A, so come prepared to ask plenty of questions related to the journey toward becoming a physician.
