Extracurriculars
I'm wondering how much more volunteering/extracurriculars I should do in order to truly be competitive when applying for med school. I've done the whole volunteering in the ER thing (which i'm sure everyone's done), i ran a summer camp, i've volunteered in a research lab/i'm doing a honour's project and also volunteered during the school yr for Right to play. What are my chances assuming my gpa is competitive?

Subject to maintaining GPA as a priority always, it is good to do/continue with ECs/volunteering of interest as active citizenship is an important ingredient in the mix.

Looks quite good. Make sure the way you describe your activities are in accordance with the CanMED roles http://rcpsc.medical.org/canmeds/Can...MEDS2005_e.pdf
Good Luck!

As long as the positions you're describing are high quality, your chances are good. By quality I mean instead of being a regular member of a club (which is good, if it's long-term), it's of course even better to be a long-term executive. Doing things that show initiative is also good (like leading the summer camp).
