How important are extra-curricular activities?
Law schools do not require any extra-curricular activities, and having them on your resume will not improve your application. However, volunteering or participating in student organizations, etc., will help you to learn and grow on a more personal level, so if there is an activity that you are interested in, pursue it. Keep in mind though, that grades are of great importance to your law school application, so never allow your participation in extra-curricular activities to diminish your grades.
