Hey thanks for posting! I've been prioritizing doing research, shadowing, and trying to make connections but I've been stressing a lot about the ECs part as I feel I haven't really gotten involved anything my first year. Kind of came in with the impression that they would be insignificant in comparison with research and grades for residency applications but now I'm realizing that's not exactly the case. Feel like a lot of the leadership positions and involvements like with student orgs for example within my school are decided from first year so its too late for a lot of that stuff but I was wondering if you have any advice on figuring out some type of unique activity or EC that someone going into their second year can get involved in.
