So I'm a college freshman and worked as an MA last summer before starting college at a dermatology office rooming patients, assisting in surgery, etc.
Is it a good idea to continue this a bit this summer? This summer I got a full time (40hr per week) volunteer position in an animal research lab, so I would have to find time to work as an MA on weekends or something like that.
Also, if I have worked as an MA (and will probably continue it the next few years) and also did 200 hours of volunteering in a hospital in high school, do I still need clinical volunteering at some point in college? I'm not sure if employment in a clinical setting will override the need for clinical/hospital volunteering.
Thank you!
