<p>Hi. So when I attended my undergraduate college I thought I’d be pre-med and so I quickly joined my college’s volunteer ambulance and signed up for a course to become an EMT since I knew that would beef up my resume for med school. However, as time went on I discovered that I really actually despised my college career. I felt like the Biology and Chemistry classes I am taking seems to be more of chore and that I had no real interest in the subject and so I got rid of the idea of pre-med since I was doing it for the pay and not for the actual love of what I’m doing so I decided to change my major from biology to geology (something I’m actually interested in). Anyway, I’m still an EMT and still volunteering in my college’s volunteer ambulance and was wondering if even though I am not applying for med school if it would look good for grad school?</p>
<p>Grad schools don’t focus on being well-rounded like medical schools do. What they look for in applications is research potential. Especially since you seem to be looking at geology grad school, it’s not particularly relevant. It shows dedication to something, but from the grad school perspective I don’t think it really stands out vs. any other general ECs.</p>
