<p>Hello everyone, I am currently a junior in high school and like many other students, I have recently received an invitation to go to the National Student Leadership Conference this summer for 9 days. I have heard mixed opinions of whether or not this is a good EC for colleges. If I have the average stats for some schools I want to go to, is this a worthwhile extracurricular activity to give me some kind of advantage?</p>
<p>If you want to participate because it is interesting for you, then go. Don’t do it just to have a good-looking EC on your college applications. You probably have better ways to use that time.</p>
