Applying to College

<p>Out of curiosity, how strong (or weak) would you say my EC's are? I'm getting pretty nervous and want some honest opinions:</p>

<p>(9-12, 75 hours/year) Model United Nations (odd leadership position that I got for being active in the club)</p>

<p>(9-12, 68 hours/year) Econ Club (Co-President)</p>

<p>(9,10, 36 hours/year) Student Government (Speaker of Sophomore Class - quit after sophomore year because it was generally unproductive, so I wrote up a school reform document - sent it to my superintendent and we discussed my ideas and some things in my school district got changed)</p>

<p>(11, 32 hours) Volunteer for Presidential Campaign</p>

<p>(9-12, 102 hours/year) Rec Soccer/Basketball</p>

<p>(11,12, 16 hours/year) Writer for School Newspaper - said I only write a little because I only write about issues that are important to me (wrote about the stuff I sent the superintendent, basically)</p>

<p>(10, 160 hours) Volunteer Camp Counselor
(11,12, 20 hours) Volunteer Camp Counselor (diff camp)</p>

<p>(12) Future Business Leaders of America</p>

<p>(11,12) Technology Student Association</p>

<p>(11) Poet for School's Arts Magazine</p>

<p>(11) Worker in my School's Shop during lunch </p>

<p>(7-12, put 4 hrs/week) Basketball Referee</p>

<p>Mmmm…I’m sorry to say but it’s a bit standard. You have a laundry list of activities but nothing of real substance. You’re activities certainly aren’t bad, but you aren’t a standout.</p>

<p>I sort of agree with raiderade. Definitely good, but not GREAT. The superintendent stuff is pretty cool though.</p>
