Enough Extracurriculars?

<p>Coming into high school, I was in the "do less, but more dedicated" mentality. Now that I'm going into my junior year, I'm wondering, have a done enough? Will simply continuing to do what I have set in place at the moment suffice? Aside from SAT scores, GPA, etc, I just want an opinion on simply my extracurrics. Here's all I'm doing:</p>

<p>[note: I'm at a Catholic HS w/ about 500 students]</p>

<p>-Started Model UN team at school freshman year. Am currently president. Team has maintained itself, has around 20 participants (my school has under 500 students overall, so I figured this wasn't bad), attends 3 (this year possibly 4) conferences a year.</p>

<p>-Participated in a national academic tournament program (called Academic Games) since 5th grade at public school, qualifying and doing well at National tournament every year; 10th grade year I founded club at my current school, and this year there've been over 20 people that have stayed past the first meeting. I'm hoping for the best :)</p>

<p>-Have lettered every year so far on swim team. Went to regionals every year so far.</p>

<p>-Volunteered teaching swim lessons for local swim club since beginning of sophomore year</p>

<p>-Secured a position volunteering 5-6 hours a week this year, and probably next year, at my local state representative's (PA State House, not U.S. House) office.</p>

<p>-Each summer since summer after 8th grade attended an academic program (Johns Hopkins CTY)</p>

<p>-Have over 100 volunteer hours (separate from swim lessons and state rep.) so far </p>

<p>This is my first post on CC, so sorry if I forgot anything!</p>

<p>To be honest, that’s a nice list right there. You emphasized on quality rather than quantity; I can see the dedication that you put into those clubs/extracurriculars.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it too much. You’re pretty much set. =)</p>

<p>These are great (minus the misc. volunteer hours, which are a dime a dozen). The fact that you’ve started not one but two successful competitive teams at your school is pretty remarkable. Definitely essay fodder, methinks.</p>
