Is this bit in the "addtl info" section advantageous?

Applying to College

<p>My main EC focus is graphic design, even though I don’t plan on majoring in it or on having a career in it. I don’t know many top students who are graphic design savvy, so I think I’ll stand out a little bit from the bunch.</p>

<p>I don’t have a planned major yet so relative ECs are impossible. I enjoy Spanish, but all that might go along with that possible major is the teacher rec, no ECs.</p>

<p>Also, our school is brand new, so participating in ECs for all four years was pretty much not plausible for my class. I dealt best with my opportunities.</p>

<p>Back to Physics, haha. I don’t think CP is good enough for S (or for my desired level of challenge). It would be an easy A, but I don’t know if I want exactly that.</p>

<p>So, go ahead, if you can master the AP self-study. In the meantime, think about how to make the graphic design pop in the EC section- use it in some way that has impact (not just as a personal interest or occasionally for a school club.) Whether or not you mention the ss in the Addl Info still needs a chat with the GC. Get an idea of how he/she wil describe the ss, so you know. Make a great app package. Good luck. Pm me, if need.</p>
