Im just wondering does NYU want to see a lot of research or are they more community service oriented. I know its important to have both but i'm trying to figure out what to do this summer to maximize my shot at my top choice school...

THANKS!!!

the bottom line is that a lot of schools are interested in both...i was far more involved in research than community based things, and I was accepted to schools that are known to have a strong focus on community (Mt. Sinai, interviewed BU).

don't worry about it-do what you like and your passion and diligence is what schools look for

Yes.
 
NYU is a research school, but spend more time on the activity that you think you will get the most out of it, I think its better to have more meaningful experiences rather than variety and scratching the surface.
