<p>Are a few, focussed ECs better than many random ones?
Next summer I plan to apply to the UCI Premed Summer Program, and/or the Stanford med program. I also plan to ask a professor from some local university like UCLA or UCI (I live in Orange County) if I can do research/internship at their lab. I also volunteer at the hospital.
I know that I don’t have a ton of ECs, but they are all geared towards medicine. Is this better than having a variety of ECs like volunteering at the library, hospital, community center, etc. at the same time?</p>

<p>It’s better to have them focused because it shows the admission officers that you have a goal which is great. Those are some excellent EC’s by the way, it seems like you have a lot of opportunities and it’s good that you’re using every last of it. :)</p>

<p>A few focused ECs or several ECs that sort of relate to each other</p>
