Does it look bad if two out of the five essays I submit to a school are about the same extracurricular (a cappella)? The experiences are completely different and I discuss different values in each essay. I'm wracking my brain trying to find something else but I can't think of anything.

I'd say write whatever you feel best answers the question. If it's the same activity then it should definitely be a significant experience that is integral to your journey to medicine, if not then adcoms will definitely quesiton why you are talking about It more than other activities in your primary.
