Research Experience
Some health professional schools look for candidates with significant science and/or social science research experience. If you are interested in gaining research experience, a great first step is to proactively engage in your classes and build relationships with faculty. During your sophomore and/or junior year, connect with faculty doing research that interests you and inquire about research opportunities for undergrads.
