<p>Hi CC'ers</p>
<p>Is college similar to high school where kids who do extra research opportunities get greater chances into getting medical/graduate school?</p>
<p>I want to email my schools to learn about their undergrad research opportunities but I do not know who to contact. Admissions counselor's? Head Professor's? Who should I email to find out more?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Research experience is very important for grad school (not necessarily professional school like med/law/MBA) admissions, since research is the primary point of grad school anyway.</p>
<p>The admissions office is a good place to start when inquiring about research opportunities for undergrads. If you have a specific major in mind, you can also contact that specific department at schools you are interested in.</p>
