<h1>10 is an honor, not EC no? But if it is somehow an EC, I’d say take out 5 because wouldn’t be that be somewhere on your transcript?</h1>

<p>Unless your blog is well known, definitely cut out blogger. I would just leave everything else in. I don’t believe it makes you look unfocused, since your ECs aren’t wildly different than each other. If you want to take more out, I would take out ones that you didn’t spend a significant amount of time on. Having a bunch of activities that you only spent a couple of hours on makes you seem like you’re just padding your resume, but if you were really dedicated to each of those activities, then it’s fine. You could also take off the oldest ones, if you still want to cut it down.</p>
