Does any one have suggestions for what I could do as extracurricular activities? I do some hospital and hospice work up until now since the start of this school year. Starting next year, my junior year, I plan to pick up some more activities including spending a couple hours a week with a group of mentally/physically disabled adults and sometimes kids, where we go to the movies, drink coffee, and such...I think this is worthwhile. Also, for 2.5 hrs/wk, I will also be helping disabled individuals at my school with their fitness, under direct supervision, of course...where they are to do activities out of water as well as in water to improve thier hand/eye coordination or whatever else they need to do. So if I apply next June, this would be the total extent of my activities (volunteer and EC's). As for GPA, let's say I am doing very well. MCAT? Who knows...I am shooting for 30. Letters of recs? Got that covered. Other than that, does anyone else have suggestions for me so I can become a stronger applicant? I don't really want to join the clubs around here because all the ones I have been to are very poorly run...I want to do something where I could be helping someone out. I think that's probably wiser than listing futile clubs/organizations. Also, are there specific things that admissions committees smile upon?
Thanks.
Thanks.
