I was curious on how much difference would leadership positions make on your application process (Top 30 schools). I had an opportunity to win one in my sophomore year but lost sadly. I have one leadership position as a senior but does it make any difference if I had one more? If so how much? I personally think it shouldn’t because it’s literally a popularity contest but people have been telling me that it’s important for your admission.
Does not matter. At all.
Leadership is not just a having a title. Often times those with a ‘title’ show little or no leadership.
Leadership is a quality, not necessarily a title.
