Hey guys,
So on my primary I filled up 11 of the 15 activities slots. I do have meaningful clinical, research, volunteering, work and EC experience but I'm not sure if having just 11 will be considered a red flag?
I'm asking because I've heard conflicting things. I've seen some people say "it's fine" and "once you get past a certain number it's basically the same as having 14 or 15" but I've also seen others say things along the lines of "You'll be competing against people who'll have 15 robust activities so you should really evaluate whether you're ready to apply."
FWIW, I did combine two different research internships at the same institute into one entry, and also combined two different Executive Board positions with the same organization into one entry.
Any thoughts? Thanks for the input!
