OP, I read your replies on this thread and became a little concerned. You sound really stressed out. Relax a bit.

This kills me:
"oh dont worry, i'm already nuts. and i havent started on the application yet. haha. only a junior. starting this summer. do you think volunteering at a hospital all during summer makes you look "dedicated"? i plan on majoring in biology, to become a doc. because i plan on volunteering at a hospital around 4 hours daily"

I don't want to be persecuted(figuratively) for saying this, but selling your life away to volunteer in hopes of impressing adcoms is ridiculously lame and seems pretty insecure.

Read freespirit22's post and enjoy yourself.
