My school is really competitive for premed. All of my friends who wanted a research position freshman year was able to get one. I guess it helps when you’re top 5 as a research med school according to US News. Just start looking at professors who are doing research now and try to find ones who are doing things you might be interested in. Have an open mind too. Then, maybe a week before school starts, or in the first few weeks of school start emailing as many professors as possible and ask them if they have positions open.
