Where to include research experience in resume?

emmacs516

During my undergrad I spent time working and earning college credit in various labs (neuroscience, psychology, and criminology). These labs offered me a lot of experience. I am very proud of the work that I completed and grateful for the opportunities. I want to highlight this experience somewhere in my application because I believe it was a big part of my undergrad career and it contributed to my personal development. The work has not yet been formally published. I think it would fit in my resume, but I am unsure where it would most make sense. Experience seems tricky because it was not a paid position but it also does not seem to fit well into Education. Any advice is appreciated!

That can absolutely go under experience. Taking a look at sample resume on law school websites might give you a good idea of the general overlay / where things fit on your resume.
