Science background - what should I put on my resume?
Posted: Fri Aug 15, 2014 10:23 pm
Hello hello,
So I was pre-med in undergrad, and upon graduating I started working in a lab thinking it would boost my med school apps. Problem is, I really started liking law last year and now I'm all in for applying this cycle.
So my question is, how should I orient my resume? I have all these specific research projects in my resume and publications. Should I just dumb down my description of my job and emphasize the volunteer/community service section? Also what about publications... I was very productive in my current 13 months in surgical research (8 accepted Pubmed publications and 3 more in review) - should I bother listing all of these?
If anyone could shed some light, or has been through the same situation that would be awesome.
Thanks in advance!
