Georgeanne, the OP knows why people should participate in ECs:



I don’t want to take EC’s just for them to look good on my application; aside from the fact that I’m just not interested.



As for the OP: you can test your little theory come admissions time. There’s a difference between conforming and pursuing a passion. If you do not have a passion, then that will probably puzzle or displease admissions officers, even more so if you have perfect academic credentials. You can apply yourself toward school all you want, but if you’re not showing involvement with anyone else, that looks bad. An isolationist mindset will not get you far in the admissions process.
