<p>Hey, I am shadowing a surgeon and volunteering in a hospital everyday for 3 hours in my gap year while taking part-time classes. I am still eligible of applying as incomign recc. I have a concern. What exactly should the surgeon write in his recommendation for me. He asked that perhaps I provide some topics he should write about. This is more a personal letter than a common app recc so it is very important.</p>
<p>By the way..Does that sound reasonable and valid for a gap year activity?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
