I haven't begun doing much for my EC's, but during my high school years I've done a few things here and there. They include:
-Graduated from RCM grade 10 piano (2014), RCM history 2 (2013), RCM basic rudiments (2009) (I think year 3) with honours, RCM harmony 2 (2011). Also took 2 years of guitar lessons.
-Earned a Black Belt from Martial Arts in 2011, Tong Moo Do
-Worked as a waiter for over 500 hours at an all you can eat
-Volunteered at a fitness centre for 42 hours (helping at front desk, taking pool tests, organizing files, etc...)
-Volunteered at a library helping kids learn to read for ~18 hours, as well as solely supervised events for kids
I still have 2 more years before I apply to medical school, and I'm planning on volunteering at hospitals and retirement homes this summer, as well as earning a first aid certificate. I'm also planning on doing research in my University next year, as this year I'm going to be primarily focused on my MCAT (I'm a second year student). Additionally, I have about a 3.96 GPA, but I'm sure that's going to drop this semester to like a 3.90 or so (I'll try to have a GPA above 3.87 for medical school).
Do my intentions sound sensible? And are my EC's so far good (what might be the most important missing EC's)?
Thanks!
