My major is biology and I have an interest in medicine. What extracurricular activities should I join? Does the EC have to be related to my major or should it show my leadership skill. I plan on volunteering at a hospital… Should I play a sport at my community college and join clubs?
Something related to biology or medicine or STEM doesn’t hurt, but neither does something totally irrelevant to it that you enjoy and are actively involved in.
Since bio is so impacted across all the UCs, I would boost with hospital, clinic, public heath-related stuff.
A lot of UCs, as well as USC, have summer research programs for community college students. Check those out, some of them are biology related.
