I don't expect any of the MME to relate to medicine. What have been the most meaningful of the up to 15 items you are able to include in that section?

There are no rules from AMCAS that says what activities you "must" have an MME on. Individual schools may express a preference (they should be upfront about that). However, you have many other opportunities to talk about your clinical experiences throughout the secondary essays and interviews so don't get too worked up about this detail.

This type of advice by rumor is likely the same source that says you must have a doctor letter among your LOE's.

It was a rhetorical question to help you get to your three MME.

Adding: I would hope your 3000 hours as a student-athlete would be meaningful to you, and to me, it would look weird if you didn't comment on it somehow. But I also acknowledge, it's your application. You gotta do you.
