Basically,
I have a lot of work experience and extra curricular experiences. Many of my leadership experiences have been for 100+ hours, for 1+ year commitments. I have made it a rule to only include things that have a lot of hours and/or had a high impact on me.
EC's:
1. Physician Shadowing( 70+ hours, FM, OMM, and specialist. 50+ hours are with the FM; ongoing)
2. Rehabilitation Aide( 1year +; weekly commitment; ongoing)
3. Medically related experience( 2+ year; biweekly commitment; ongoing)
4. Medically related experience ( 2+ year; lump sum hours within shorter span of time, not a mission trip, but similar in that a lot of hours in a shorter amount of time)
5. Volunteering with children in a non-medical context(4+ years, ongoing, summer camps, day camps during the year; ongoing)
6. Medically related fundraising campaign-leadership(3+ years, ongoing)
7. University political leadership role (4+ years, senior position, large amount of hours and exposure)
8. University leadership role ( 3+ years, senior position, large amount of hours and experience working with people)
9.University political leadership role (1 year, high impact)
10. Medically related experience( 6 months, 50 hours, vulnerable population)
11.University leadership role (2+ years, high hours, and high service)
12. Community volunteer role with underserved youth(1 week per year, for 3 years)
13.University leadership role(1 year, senior position, high impact)
14. Club leadership role(1 year, first experience with leadership at university)
15. Community volunteer roles(3+ years, various exposure)
16. High school volunteer role(5+ year, same organization, with progressive increase in responsibilities)
As you can see I already have a lot of meaning(to me) entries, that show my service to the community and my long-term involvments. I have many other volunteer roles such as free clinics, flu clinics, and such, but they were never in an organized fashion, and not continuous, so I haven't bothered to add them in.
Do you think that I should trim it down even more? I don't want the ADCOM to read it and get bored but at the same time I don't want to "undersell" my self either, since I have really only included things that I have genuinely done for long term and have shaped me to be who I am!
Thanks for your opinions.
