<p>I run Track and Field and am involved in 6 clubs one of which I helped found (Earth Club), Link Crew (We help guide the freshman throughout the school year, Debate Club, Class of 2015 planning committee, CSF, and Key Club.</p>
<p>you are probably good with those. Though being an officer in one of the clubs wouldn’t hurt.</p>
<p>Now for the grades and SAT portion …</p>
<p>Yeah, I think people tend to forget how important grades and SAT scores are. In general, you can get in with high academic stats and few extracurricular activities, but not the opposite.</p>
<p>I agree that grades and SAT scores are crucial. Also remember it isn’t the number of ECs that matter, it’s the depth of interest you show. One or two ECs with a lot of involvement over a long period of time beats 8 - 10 scattershot ECs with no long-term commitment.</p>
<p>Okay thank you all for the advice, much appreciated.</p>
