I am looking to try to get a head start on my AMCAS before it opens up in May. I am a little confused on how exactly I should set up my extra curricular since I am limited to 15. Should I group them? What order should they go in? How do my extra curricular activities even look compared to the average matriculant? Any and all help is appreciated.
