Extra-curricular activities?

Apologies in advance for the long post. I have noticed that from reading the old BA FPP thread that people who got in to the aforementioned scheme were people who had lots of work experience or extra-curricular activities. As I'm at university, I'm not in a position to talk about work experience as I haven't done any part-time jobs(not due to laziness, just fully focussing on my studies) but I haven't done many useful extra curricular activities(was student rep for a year, member of committee in school but only provided minimal input)! My other problem is that I'm in my 4th year of my engineering degree and, as to be expected, a very large proportion of my time is dedicated towards my studies. Can anyone advice on what I should do? I am on the lookout for an engineering industrial placement and am very close to becoming a member of the community fundraising group. I'm also applying for a lot of voluntary jobs.note this isn't just for BA, but for all airlines.
