Answer 1

I'm not really clear on what you're asking, but I'll take a shot.

Are you asking what you can do for experience before applying to medical school? Because while experience is always nice, it certainly isn't required. If you want, you can volunteer at a hospital, nursing home, local Red Cross...you can sometimes even arrange to shadow a doctor.

If you are planning to graduate and work for a while before applying, most jobs in the medical field would require a certain amount of training. You can become an EMT, a medical technician, a phlebotomist, a physician's assistant...but all of these things require training, although not as much as med school. You could probably work as a hospital administrator or be a secretary in a doctor's office without necessarily having any specialized training in medicine. (I temped at an OB/GYN practice before going to med school.)

If that isn't what you meant, you'll have to clarify your question.

Answer 2

I started out as a lab technician in a health department laboratory. I began by counting bacterial colonies on Petri dishes, staining slides, mixing culture media. I advanced to more quantitative and qualitative analyses of water and milk. It was a good intro to quantitative analysis in college and microbiology in med school. My starting salary was $1.41 per hour, bus ride cost 25 cents each way, and when I bought a used car for $75, parking cost $5 per month. My mom usually fixed my lunch, but you could eat at the restaurant around the corner for about 75 cents.
