<p>How much does having leadership in clubs help? Moreover, what is considered to be an impressive time to have leadership in clubs/school activities (meaning, is it still impressive as a senior, or a junior, or even a sophomore) and how much influence does it have if you obtain a position at a younger age?</p>
<p>Can any of us really answer this, as non-admissions officers?

<p>Smoda - you forgot how I switch races as well.
Eating Food - I agree. But you can always be a leading Actor or Singer or founder/pres. of a relevant club. It isnt unheard of.</p>
<p>Stoompy - reread my post, I did say that</p>
<p>Oops. I meant Gender. My bad.</p>
<p>^Ok, I guess I missed that</p>
