Gain experience

Those who do not have work experience during the school year are at a disadvantage when applying for full-time or other internship positions. Therefore it is recommended that if one can find a job that fits their interest, he/she should get started as soon as possible.

Network and build relationships

Connect with individuals that are in your interested field. Oftentimes, they can provide connections and/or job opportunities that could fit your interests.

Integrate your interests

“Going to medical school does not have to be a compromise with what you are passionate about. You don’t have to leave behind any passions; it is about exploring how you can pursue your passions in the context of an interest in medicine and helping other individuals.”
