For an ERAS Fellowship application, a professional headshot photo is typically required. The photo should be:

Recent and taken within the past year
High quality and clear, with good lighting and resolution
Formal, with a neutral expression and attire (such as a white coat for medical students)
Properly cropped and centered
In a common digital format (e.g. JPEG or PNG)

It is important to present yourself in a professional manner, as the photo and your application as a whole will be a representation of yourself to potential programs.

If you’re not 100% sure if you actually want to become a doctor or physician of some kind, one of the best ways and tips to learn about the medical field is to follow a doctor in your area community. Following or “Shadowing” permits prospective med students to follow doctors throughout the middle of the day to better understand what the role of doctor actually entails. As a high school student you can easily ask your own doctors if they would be willing for you to shadow them, or speak to your professors and see if they know of someone who might be keen on the idea.

Furthermore, high school students can learn valuable information and tips about a career in medicine by setting up informational interviews. Unlike typical job interviews, the purpose of an information interview is actually to obtain information about a medical position. Ask your specific questions, gain knowledge about daily responsibilities and duties, and find out if you would actually be happy working in this type of profession. Even if you decide a career in the medicine field isn’t the right choice for you at the end of the day, you’ll be one step further to seeking out the perfect job for yourself.
