<p>Are these activities competitive at the UC's, Rice, and the Claremont colleges?
If you have suggestions, let me know :)</p>
<p>EC activities: (not in any order, but I think there is a main focus?) *** denotes leadership position
1. Italian Club President (11,12)-- secretary in 9 and 10 ***</p>
<ol>
<li><p>American Cancer Society Club President (12)-- just elected, served as VP in 11 and member in 9 and 10 **</p></li>

This takes nearly 60 hours of planning on my part for the event, and after the event I lead the committee in other activities (for example, raising money for a student at my school suffering from cancer whose family is having a hard time financing health expenses and a stable living situation for the student's siblings) *</p></li>
<li><p>Volunteer for many many hours at an organization in the urban area near me that houses cancer patients (children)-- I work on the living conditions for these patients and their families by making holiday cards, painting, cleaning, organizing, making the place a nice place for the brave kids! I also tutor the patient's siblings.</p></li>
<li><p>Intern and volunteer at my local hospital's cancer center</p></li>
<li><p>Piano for 11 years, some awards from my conservatory</p></li>
<li><p>Flute and Piccolo which I play in my school's band (first chair), my region's orchestra (first chair), my school's musicals, competitions (with some awards), and my region's honor band, and a flute "choir" of mostly professional flautists</p></li>
<li><p>Mental Health Awareness Club President and Founder (11,12)-- founded after personal encounter, support group for those suffering from depression, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, etc., or those whose family or friends are suffering from those illnesses *</p></li>
<li><p>Varsity Tennis (9,10,11,12)- elected Captain next year **</p></li>

<li><p>Robotics team member (though, no leadership position)</p></li>
<li><p>possibly next year's band president, though I don't know yet.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Work experience.. I worked at a sales associate at Nordstrom for 10 and 11, a tennis camp counselor for 9,10, 11. (not very important, I probably won't even include these) These jobs took place all year.
Actually, it is probably relevant, and I totally forgot to include that I teacher flute and piano to elementary school/ middle school students. I charge very little to nothing because most of my students cannot afford to pay a teacher.</p>
