<p>I was looking at the Yale application online (CommonApp it seems) and they have 7-8 lines to write your EC activities. I am only involved in 2-3 real ECs, and maybe one more EC like "member of math team." Is it possible to gain admissions to yale, or any top school without many ECs?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Absolutely! In fact, it’s probably ideal that you only have a few activities that are your main focus. They give you seven slots just in case.</p>
<p>Thank you WishyWashy, I am feeling a lot better. I am involved in two publications and a moot court team. If I can get to the top of all three activities (EICx2/Captain), do you think I will have competitive ECs for the Yale applicant pool?</p>
<p>Yes, it’s much more important to have leadership in a few clubs than just have lots of clubs.</p>
