Question about entering a volunteer experience


Recommended Posts

I have a question about how to one of my volunteer experiences in Caspa. I volunteer with then medical reserve corps organization in my city. Typically, each month they will send me an email about a health fair, emergency training exercise, blood pressure screening day, etc, and I either elect to participate or not.  The experiences range from working with patients to non-patient exposure, and they may last from 5-12 hours for a day. 

 

My question is, should I enter each experience separately or should I keep them all under the medical reserve corps heading? Is there a limit to the amount of experiences one can enter in the application? If anyone has had previous experience entering this information, I would appreciate the help!

I had a similar experience, I entered them all under the same heading, then in the description I detailed the different activities and varying hours each month

 

Thank you for replying! Do you know if any of your experience counted for HCE for the schools you applied to or was it all factored as volunteer? 

 

Thanks!

I'd enter them under the same heading with the reserve core. That way, you are showing a longer commitment to one organization. :-) Good luck!
