<p>Do extracurricular activities have as much weight in Law School Admissions as Undergraduate Admissions? I'm trying to figure out how to map out my extracurricular activities since I've learned from past experience, I kind of get wild and do almost everything I am interested in taking away time from studying; I definitely do not want to do that again...stupid</p>
<p>So other than summer internships (which i definitely will pursue),
would having leaderships in clubs be beneficial. If so, how much? Should I just stick to one or two and study while spending my summers wisely or should I go for more and have my GPA slightly lower?</p>
<p>Extracurriculars don’t really make that much of a difference in the grand scheme of things, though they might at places like Boalt, Stanford, Michigan, and Yale. </p>
<p>So yes, focus on maintaining those grades, as they will be far more decisive in the admissions process. But don’t become a shut-in. I managed to become president of a few organizations, and members of many others, all while earning north of a 3.8. It’s very possible to do that, and many people do it. Join clubs that interest you and enjoy college.</p>
