We give an expression for the frequency of non-simple curves in closed surfaces and exploit it to study relative frequencies of such curves in large genus. This extend to the case of non-simple curves Mirzakhani's expressions of frequencies in terms of Konsevitch polynomials and Delecroix-Goujard-Zograf-Zorich large genus asymptotics for those frequencies. In particular, with K fixed, we identify which types of curves with K intersections are most common.
