As explained briefly before, each applicant should (for their own edification) and must (for the purpose of being a strong candidate for admission) explore a variety of non-academic activities. It is through these activities that qualities related to leadership, communication, service, judgment, and maturity are developed and confirmed. There is no strict requirement described by medical schools, but success in coursework alone is generally not sufficient. Again, the focus should be on input to the career decision, not on the resume that will be presented. Efforts to pad a resume are generally quite transparent. If an experience isn’t valuable to you, it’s unlikely to appear valuable to an admission committee.
