<p>I'm only a sophomore (in hs) but I'm really trying to get a head start on college. By academic load is pretty rigorous but I really want to know what top colleges are looking for EC wise?</p>
<p>um good ECs? sorry to be vague, but what are you interested in? and how competitive is competitive?
if you are looking at IVY/IVY equivalent, accomplishment at the state-national level will set you apart, anything else is most likely about average or just slightly above average</p>
