I know that many have said, and I agree, that showing depth in a particular activity is better than having pages of ECs. That makes complete sense to me and I agree that it is good to show your keen interest in one area rather than have a laundry list of things.

BUT, what if you have participated in pages and pages of ECs AND have also demonstrated interest and depth in a couple of those activities? Should you not mention the “laundry list” at all? What if you’ve participated in something for only one year (for one reason or the other)? Should you exclude those?

Or should you mention all the things you have done, just demonstrate your interest and serious involvement in the two or three things you are passionate about?
