<p>What do private schools consider to be impressive ECs?</p>
<p>These are mine (so far):
Scholar Athlete
Honor Roll
Tennis JV/V
Tennis (nonschool) - Open Level
TON of volunteer hours
Child Care (9hrs/wk)
VP Dory Club for Dementia
Habitat for Humanity
Dances for Disabled
Traveling to help poor</p>
<p>-I’ve cured cancer on many occasions
-President of Every club in my highschool as well as the highschool 15 minutes away from mine
-Play in the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB</p>
<p>these are just a few of my achievements… I mean they aren’t that good but whatever.</p>
<p>I don’t think honor roll is an EC :/</p>
<p>609, yours suck, mine are:</p>
<p>-President of The World
-I own all the air - every time you breath I make 2 cents
-Creator of a small business, it’s called Microsoft, you might have heard of it
-Lead guitarist in The Beatles
-I control every stop light in the world, so naturally I make them all go green for myself, and stay red for those I don’t like</p>
<p>Obviously I have leadership in all of them. At my private school these ECs would be considered slightly above average.</p>
<p>OP, I think that you have great extra curricular activities. Schools, especially private ones, like to see that you were involved in High School. Sometimes it is about quality and not quantity. If you are highly involved in just a few ECs it can be just as if not more impressive than being slightly involved in many.</p>
<p>I laughed so hard at dfree… lol two cents…</p>
<p>I actually got that bit from Family Guy</p>
