The Rachleff Scholar's Program is a great way to be introduced to research!
What I wish was different
I wish I had organized my research presentation more in advance.
Advice
Don't get discouraged if you don't get the results you want in research! Failure in those areas leads to some great learning.

Research Intern
May - August 2018 • Philadelphia, PA
What I liked
I gained experience doing research analysis and will get my name on a publication. I also had opportunities to explore the medical field through shadowing, help out with a conference and meet patients.
What I wish was different
I wish this internship had been paid.
Advice
Take advantage of the people around you, they are a wealth of knowledge. This internship exposed me to a wide variety of people and made me think a lot about where I wanted my career to go and what I want to do. Having those resources is a great way to figure those things out.
