So to answer the question, yes, I would say your ECs do seem to reflect your major. I also agree with @crsgo0422 that you should focus on the depth of your ECs and not the breadth. Having said that however, I think it's also important to consider that not every EC you do HAS to be related to your intended major. Colleges still want to see who you actually are as a person: hobbies, interests, the things you enjoy that make you...you. Those things can be just as important as ECs that reflect your major and colleges want to know about them. They can help you stand out from the crowd otherwise you can come off as someone who might be "boring" if that makes sense.
