** Prerequisite Notes Usually a grade lower than a C is not acceptable for any pre-requisite courses Several medical schools have calculus II and statistics as required courses Several medical schools state that they give higher priority to those with calculus based physics (not observed in Westminster applicants) You should develop a list of your top schools and specifically research their exact requirements.
Specific Extra-curricular Requirements: Involvement in extra-curricular activities shows that you have learned how to balance the demands of life. You should have other activities outside of those specifically listed below. All activities below can also be counted as extra-curricular activities. You should not double-dip between any categories listed below. All activities should be completed within the 3-4 years prior to application. You should keep track of activities completed in a document and log significant meaningful experiences. This will help you complete your application
	Volunteer: Necessary for you to learn that you enjoy a life of service to others Cannot receive compensation of any kind to count as fulfilling this requirement. This includes credit in class even extra-credit. Opportunities arise often with the clubs on campus. Shadowing: Necessary for you to learn what the demands of being of Doctor entail Should be varied – shadowing different doctors so that you learn about the life of doctors in a variety of fields. This cannot be counted as patient exposure Patient Exposure: Necessary for you to learn that you like being around sick people Patient exposure opportunities most often come from volunteering as hospitals, volunteering for hospice, working as a phlebotomist, working at a camp for sick children, etc. Leadership: Necessary for you to learn how to take responsibility Leadership opportunities most often arise out of other extra-curricular activates that you participate in. You must make sure that you have an active role as a leader, not a title Research: Necessary for you to learn how current medical practices came to be Must be hypothesis driven and should entail experimental design, data collection and data analysis. Does not have to be scientific research and does not have to be published
