Non-clinical Volunteering: 200 hours in Surgical Service Reception and Volunteer Department, plus some hours from church volunteering (camp counseling and misc)
Physician Shadowing: 20 hours, Hospitalist (low, I know)
Employment:

  1. I anticipate 2200 hours from my in-person full-time scribing job at a dermatology clinic for my gap year. I'm getting to know several physicians and PAs + lots of patient interaction. My goal was to add more physician shadowing and clinical experience.
  2. 500 hours work-study job in the library
  3. 300 hours summer job at Jamba Juice (F->Soph)
  4. 700 hours work-study job in campus catering service

Leadership:

  1. Editorial Director of an online food publication/campus organization. Started out as a writer and managing editor. 500 hours, the base for my diversity essays as I've published several media coverage articles for restaurants in the Bay Area and organized two on-campus food festivals with 10 vendors and 1000+ attendees each. This was on top of editing/publishing articles for 15 writers = 60-80 articles a semester.
  2. Church Events Planning Director, off-campus Christian fellowship. 400 hours. MCing, planning with church leaders, coordinating retreat plans for 90 attendees.

Other ECs: Online biology tutor from the beginning of COVID-19 shelter-in place to July, 30 hours
LORs:

  1. PI - I met with her often as it was a small lab. I expect this letter to be decent as previous lab members had to write their own letters.
  2. Volunteer Coordinator - I volunteered in her department, she knew me on a personal level despite managing 300 other clinical volunteers
  3. Science professor - Went to all OHs, he knew my name, did well.
  4. Science professor/TA - Went to all OHs, but my TA knew me better. Joint letter. Did well.
  5. Sociology professor - Went to most OHs until shelter-in-place. Supplemented my letter request with lots of written work. Can't say it'll be stellar though.

Etc: Phi Beta Kappa, graduated w/ Honors
