# How do I build a cohesive narrative in my application with many different ECs (e.g., for Law)?

The trick is to connect everything through a central theme, not just list activities. For law, that theme could be "justice and advocacy", so your MUN shows debate skills, a legal aid volunteering stint shows empathy, an essay competition shows articulation, and a research paper shows intellectual depth. In your application essay, explicitly draw this thread. Admissions readers should finish reading and think: "This student has been preparing for law in every way they could."
