Hi everyone, so I wanted to start a thread about ECs because people can get ideas from each other and because I need ideas,
mine so far are volleyball, track, student council, campus life, and tennis (need a lot more)
&I’m class of 2019 btw
comment yours:)
I’m just going to say that you shouldn’t focus on getting more extracurriculars but rather devoting more time and effort into in the ones you already have.
Unless you seriously want to do something for purposes other than college admissions. In that case, go ahead.
I’m currently a junior.
Violin: orchestra (varsity 9th) (9, 10), played violin in church (volunteering) (9, 10)
Robotics: FRC (Treasurer 10, 11) (Varsity 9, 10) (Dean’s List 10), coach elementary school robotics (volunteering) (9,10), teach robotics summer camp (paid job) (10), working on designing a robot for BattleBots (11)
Climbing Team (9, 10, 11)
Debate (9)
Math Team (10, 11 hopefully)
Washington Aerospace Scholars (11)
Helped run a summer camp in El Salvador, planning to stay involved with the community and start a school club (10, 11)
Working on a computer game with my friends to enter in the SkillsUSA competition, I might also enter in the CAD category of the competition (11)
I think the key to having interesting extracurricular is to do things that interest you and take opportunities when they come. My main interest is robotics and STEM in general, so I’m doing a lot of things that branch off of that.
I’m currently in 8th grade. I don’t have a lot of ECs…
Science Olympiad (THE BEST THING TO EVER EXIST, this is my most serious EC, I have been top 3 in the nation, top 3 in the state, and I’ve only gotten 1st place at regionals)
Brown Belt in Karate (Becoming Black Belt in two years)
I do Art seriously
Tennis
Yearbook
Newspaper
I sorta know how to play cello, not really. I don’t play it for anything, this isn’t really an EC at all.
Track, and I’m gonna start volunteering at the local library once a week 
I have a LOOOOONG list. It’s a few pages back on the HS Class of 2019 thread if anybody cares enough to look.
Congressional Debate, Tennis, Interact Club, NHS, volunteering at library, and a job
I decided that I cared enough to look.
Science Olympiad, Science Bowl, GSA, Chess Club, assistant coaching Science Olympiad, Competition Math Club, Conputational Linguistics Olympiad, Space Club, Bighorn Society, my job, hopefully Mu Alpha Theta (and local math competitions before that) and I’m still trying to apply to be an OSIRIS-REx ambassador. Plus, I’m going to try for NACLO, USABO, USAJMO (not like I’m gonna make it lol), and USAAAO. I’m also going to try to be a flag bearer and booth person for Cultural Heritage Club. I also go climb once or twice a week outside of work and Bighorn. And I also do climbing competitions.
You guys have so much ECs! Wow, I really need more… I’m planning on joining a few clubs.
@Trafficlight24 aha, i agree, need way more
Pahhhhh. I have too many.
I have a short list lol
