What do you mean by depth? Length of time (e.g. months, years) at the EC? Total hours? Or what you did (quality of the work)?
Both kind of. Basically I was lacking significant, committed dedication in any one area. I was in clubs, had some teaching/tutoring, some shadowing, some volunteering, some research. But no one space that I had prolonged experience with. So I decided to do regular volunteering in an ED and got a full time job as a Post-Bacc. I never got a CNA or anything so I really didn’t have much experience in health care. I still don’t have a ton, just some extra (maybe 40) shadowing hours, what the ED volunteering gave me, and marginally related experience from working as an assistant in an optometrist office. So I’d say it’s true when you hear that showing commitment to one thing is much better than a mediocre covering of all the bases.
