This article is very informative.
I always thought about volunteering, working as an intern, or applying for an entry-level position within the medical field, but I never thought about attending the chapter meetings because I’m studying for the certification exam and practicing the extreme coding scenarios in The Extra Step coding book. These scenarios are so advanced, that they are literally wearing me out! I thought the ones we had in school were overwhelming, but these are infinite!
Anyway, I’ll start looking the chapter meetings. Thanks for the tip.
