  1. Hi everyone, I'm a second semester junior and I planning to pursue an MD/PhD. I have a decent GPA (3.76) and a lot of research experience. So I have two questions for you all- 1. How much doctor shadowing/volunteering do you recommend? I know it's not necessary, but it definitely looks good. 2. Applications open in June. I plan to have everything ready to go by then so I can apply early. However, I'm not planning on taking the MCAT until August due to a busy semester and a hopeful internship opportunity in the summer. How badly will this harm my application? Thanks! I appreciate any and all comments.
  2. I'm a junior biology major with a math minor at a good state school. I have a good GPA, good relations with my professors, and ample research experience. My problem- Growing up I always wanted to be a doctor. I still have that desire, however I'm really into research too. I don't know if I should pursue a career in research or continue being premed. I know there are some options that would allow me to do both, like MD/PhD programs, however they are highly competitive. Does anyone have any advise/opinions on what I should do? I'm just really at a standstill now and depending on which path I choose to take, I would need to change my class schedule and start preparing for standardized tests.
