There’s no point doing extra things just to try and make yourself look good to universities – you won’t enjoy it and it probably won’t help much either. From what I’ve seen an interest and aptitude for the course is more important to admissions tutors than lots of extra curricular activities. If you do want to do something to boost your application, read relevant books or do work experience related to the subject instead.
