Hey guys I just wanted some general opinions on this, would an independent study in philosophy be something I could put on my application and would it harm my application in any way? I understand that it might not help per se I was just wondering if it was something I could put on a med school application and if so what category would it fall under? I have a peripheral interest in philosophy even though I am a biology major and the professor that’s offered me the opportunity has also offered to write me a letter of recommendation. He is a scholar in a philosophical tradition I’ve been immersed for the past year or so. Thanks!
