When did you a lot of your extracurricular activities? Did you start as a freshman and keep going or did you start half way through and cram it all in?

I'm planning on applying this coming cycle and I just started my EC's (hospice volunteering and underpriveleged tutoring) besides research which I've been doing for about 2.5 years. It might be a problem since it looks like applicant expedience. I would have started earlier but I was too busy repairing my then sub 3.0 GPA. Oh well. The worst that can happen is that I'll have to reapply the next cycle. If that's the case I'll have a longer EC history and my GPA will be higher.
 
If you're considering applying to medical school, it would be best to get started on your volunteering/clinical experience right away.
