hi, ok let me give you some genuine advice. you should see if you are able to join any clubs (debate, medics club, red cross maybe?) depends which med schools you want to get into. In terms of extracurriculars for lawyers it'd be best if you could do public speaking, debate is always a good extracurricular but it's very generic. honestly depends on what uni you want to get into, american uni's tend to want extracurriculars anything to show you are well rounded but uk uni's (more specifically oxbridge) want to see what things you have done to show you have passion and potential. which uni's are you aiming to get into?

Debating is good, the debating here for my country is run by law students

if u want to make money then doctor is probs not the best option

#

doctors r 4 ppl who r ready to memorise a lot of science shit and r caring towards patients bc u r dealing with lives

imo if you have a passion towards helping people doctor would be the best option but if you want less risk and just money engineering would be the best option. If you plan on becoming a doctor you would have to be ready to go a couple years without earning

in eca's for this you'll need to show you're like good at public speaking, patience and are headstrong. You should like helping people.
You'll need to showcase all of this in your eca's because they'll align with your career interests.

Volunteer work at NGO's, Medical/Law Internships (assistant and stuff), MUN's (public speaking), Community service, Clubs related to research/debate.

I think these are some that do align with your career.
You can add some hobbies like playing an instrument and all too
