As a Pre-Med Student, What Should I Be Studying for Fun Over the Summer?

Question by Burt Bacharach: As a Pre-Med Student, what should I be studying for fun over the summer?
Are there some sort of medical books about diagnosing stories, or websites, that I could look at? Should I be studying only for my chemistry next semester? I feel pretty confident.

What I’m really worried about is that there is so much medical mumbo-jumbo I don’t get; when I job shadow at the hospital I am assaulted with words I don’t understand. Is there a good way I can get a grasp for this?

You could ask the doctors that you job shadow for books and advice. Don’t worry about the vocabulary though. You will learn it when you go to med school. There’s no rush. I would suggest studying biology.
