Volunterring.?

I want to become a doctor in the future. I’m in college right now. Where I live, we have 5 years of High School, 2 years of College, and then University. I’m 16 right now. I was wondering; when is it a good time to start volunteering in a hospital. I know that med schools look at this.

NOW! Now is the perfect time to begin volunteering. Considering yu want to be a doctor, volunteering will help you out immensely if you do. Every school loves stidents that do volunteer work, and id you apply as a med student, colleges will love a student like you.

It’s never too soon to begin your volunteering. But remember what the intent is for volunteering: to dispel the romance of medicine that is created by movies and television and to demonstrate your compassion to help people. Helping with paperwork doesn’t accomplish this. Being as close as you can to the delivery of health care, regardless of the setting, does. Nobody expects you to actually do anything, but being around it does expose you to the real world and that’s what the admission committee wants to see.
