Keep in mind, very few premeds take a gap year to do research because they want to. Most of them take a gap year to study for the MCAT, improve their clinical experience, etc. and use a research job to fill up the remaining time. I’m one of the stupid ones who actually chose to take a year off to work for 50-60 hours a week for meager pay ;)
