GPA: 3.75
MCAT: not yet taken
My only patient experience is from volunteering at nursing homes. Where I live it is not very possible for me to volunteer at a hospital. It is also impossible to find a doctor willing to let someone shadow them, so I have no shadowing hours. Other volunteer hours are from around my college campus, not necessarily medical related. Are nursing homes an acceptable source of volunteering? And how many hours of volunteering does the average matriculant have?
