<p>I am trying out for a top school. I was wondering if not play a sport and instrument hurts me. I played tennis for 2 years but just for a after school program and i dont play anymore.</p>
<p>Think about what makes you special - if not a sport or music, perhaps community service, writing, starting a business, class president, unusual ethnic or geographic identity, first generation, etc. Schools have little interest in students without something special in addition to graders and test scores. </p>
<p>I agree with above. What can you bring to the school that will make you stand out as an applicant?</p>
