<p>Do what you want to do without focusing on college admissions. It’s bad when people try to take on too many things because they think it will be “impressive” for college. A good student is a well rounded student. I have only participated in 2 clubs during my whole high school career, but I have held the highest leadership position in both of them. I think this says a little more than simply doing a load of activities, but without developing much leadership. DON’T let the fellow CCers on here intimidate you. Remember, the people on this site are truly set on going to a good college. So of course they are going to have very good credentials. You also need to realize that there a bunch of people applying to colleges that do not have nearly as good of credentials (aka, those other 75%+ people who have lower scores than you). Colleges want a diverse student body, so they are not going to always pick the kids with the most activities since they see that all the time. Good Luck with your schooling and I’m sure you will end up perfectly fine!</p>
