<p>well basically, I'm lacking in them. I tutor at the library and help with the children's book club. I founded my school's book club, and I'm the News Editor of my school paper (hope to be Editor-In-Chief senior year). Besides that I take dance lessons, just bought a guitar (have to find a teacher) and the rest of the time I read, write, and listen to music. I have a few awards from my school and from the city.
I'm worried because of the stories of all these amazing kids who have so many activities going on and have a long list of awards and such. I'm passionate about the activites that I do, but I don't want to be put out of the running of competitive schools because I haven't founded a company or something.
What can I do?
What are you guys doing extra curricular-wise.</p>
<p>Curing cancer. Jk lol. We're just doing the same kind of stuff you do. It doesn't really matter what you do, just make sure you're passionate about your activities. Colleges look for diversity in their class. They don't want everyone to be the same "I won 1st in the International Math Olympiad" type of person.</p>
<p>Trust me, you're doing fine in extra curriculars. I had less than you do, and still got into some great schools. Unless you find another passion, stick with what you've got.</p>
