Best Extra-Curriculars


Recommended Posts

Any ECs/volunteering that will interest you, demonstrating empathy, compassion, leadership, communication and/or other CanMED competencies. Adcoms do not care about in which activities you participate, rather they are interested in your active citizenship, your contribution to your community and your growth, development and CanMEDS competencies being demonstrated.

Not a very good strategy for U of M medical school, in particular the non-indigenous application pool. They specifically look at your GPA, MCAT, Casper scores and if offered an interview then your MMI scores and any extra-curricular activities are not factored in. I would focus my energy in improving these areas (in particular the MCAT and MMI as they are the most heavily weighted both pre and post-interview).

Good luck with your future application.
