<p>Is it bad to say that when i started 9th grade I joined every club that I thought would look good for college? I plan to go on and say that I dropped all but one, which would become my most meaningful EC in high school.</p>
<p>without seeing it in the essay, my advice right now would be to phrase it slightly differently...
talk about all the activities without saying that they were specifically for colleges.</p>
<p>If you'd like to PM me your essay, I could let you know how it sounds in context.</p>
<p>I agree with TheVeganActress - how do the schools know that you aren't in the meaningful activity just to get into college? I'm not saying you don't have a passion for it, but that question might raise red flags at the admissions office. Try to convey the importance of this activity to you with every word in your essay, leave the adcoms with no doubts.</p>
<p>If you want another reader, PM me and I would be happy to do so.</p>
<p>never mind, im changing my whole approach to the queston.</p>
