Hello

I'm submitting my AACOMAS application soon and noticed it's a bit different from AMCAS, as it separates achieves and experiences into two sections.

For AMCAS, it's encouraged to use all 15 slots, but I only have 12 for the AACOMAS application, because a few are designated to achievements. Should I add more experiences that I've done or is 12 enough?
 
Quality > quantity. I actually left a couple activities off my AACOMAS because I didn’t dedicate a lot of time to them and they didn’t add to my narrative. Didn’t want adcoms to think I was fluffing my app. 12 is plenty if you can explain what you learned from each.
