What are some volunteer/internships in Dallas for high school students who want to study in the medical field?

I have realized that having medical school opportunities will help you stand out and benefit you in the long run. I have heard about the STARS program but I believe it is too late to apply for that program.

What would be the best way to prepare and get the experience that I need for a school to be willing to hire me?

They tend to hire coaches and teachers with more experience due to the fact that they have a resume that they can go based off. This makes it harder for those attempting to get experience for their resume. #teaching

Both of these careers are working in the pharmacy field, but the difference between pharmacy technician and pharmacist are the length I have to spend at university and the cost to attend. I have to balance the financial between go to university and family’s life.
