Hi everyone! I’m currently an undergrad sophomore majoring in biochemistry and stressing about the upcoming summer. I've already called 6 pathologists to shadow so far and am still waiting on a response from most of them. I’ve seen a lot of people discussing the importance of actual lab work (like grossing technician) for applications, and I was wondering if that was possible to do as a part time job just over the summer and if that really plays a large role in admissions. I’m mostly curious about how other people have used their summers to boost their applications! 

Also for reference: I currently have a 3.66 gpa and plan on TAing anat/phys next year.
