Medicine work experience

Hi, I’m in Year 12 and I’m worried about work experience: I have spent a few days in a hospital shadowing doctors, and I’m starting hospital ward volunteering. I’m also going to do some virtual ones, and I have quite a few extracurriculars i can talk about related to science and some outside science. My grades are also pretty good. I was wondering if I should ideally get more medical (clinical in person) work experience? I am finding it quite hard because a lot of the ones i see only accept applications from a certain area.
Thank you!

no, you’re fine now. well done for doing the stuff you’ve done so far. the volunteering should be a rly good opportunity. this is all coming from someone who applied med and has gotten a couple interviews so far with 1 week shadowing wex, 6motnhs volunteering.

Thank youuuu so much do you mind sharing where u applied? Xx

i did kings college hospital volunteering in the wards doing mealtime support x
if you can’t find a hospital thing tho then dw as long as you’re doing an appropriate role it’s fine, like care home or charity shop working with other people and stuff.
