The Best Strategies to Make Your AMCAS Work & Activities Stand Out

Описание: Here are the best strategies to make your AMCAS Work and Activities stand out. If you're unsure of which activities are best to include in your AMCAS Work and Activities Section, this video is for you. he Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) runs the American Medical College Application Service, or AMCAS, a centralized application service that allows aspiring first-year medical students to create one application that can be sent to most US medical schools. In this video, you'll learn how to compose effective entries, including the AMCAS "Most Meaningful Experiences", which activities should be included, and how to maximize the allotted space to create powerful entries. Finally, we'll show you 40 AMCAS Work and Activities examples from our own past successful students so you can work towards creating your own stand-out entries.

For this section of the AMCAS application, you will be able to select 15 experiences covering research, volunteer experiences, employment, awards, honors, publications, and extracurriculars for medical school, and you can enter up to four occurrences for each type of experience. So, for example, if you have had five volunteer experiences, you can only include four of these, so be sure to prioritize effectively. You want to think strategically about which of your experiences you want to include, demonstrating a diverse range of experiences and highlighting a variety of key qualities sought in aspiring med students.

Even though each AMCAS entry is considerably shorter than a component like your personal essay, that doesn’t necessarily mean that these are easier to compose, nor that they are of less importance than the AMCAS personal statement. There are no insignificant aspects of the application process. You must bring your best, most refined effort to each and every component of your application. Sometimes, working with less space is actually more difficult, because you want to say as much as you can within a very limited character count. So don’t delay or put off this portion of your application—crafting stellar entries will take a lot of time and energy, but the payoff is immeasurable.
