Shadowing Experience

Your shadowing experience might overlap with the previous section's material, but the emphasis here is on what you learned through observation. There is less potential here for forceful points, because observation is a passive activity, but it can be useful for proving your in-depth understanding of the profession.

Non-medical Experience

It's very possible to demonstrate the relevant qualities you possess for medicine in non-medical experiences. In most cases your goal will be to demonstrate an ability to work and interact effectively with people. For instance, you might describe experience as a camp counselor, a tutor, or even the captain of an athletic team.
