<p>I have some questions regarding the UC application... I thought I'd post here, since I didn't get many posts in the other threads. So, Im hopin'...maybe you'd help me out? :)</p>
<p>Well, I used to take piano last year, but now Im thinking of not doing it. I joined a few clubs this year (12th grade), but they're pretty new, and some developed this year. Because of my interest, I joined those clubs. I just don't want to seem "sketchy", since the only club that I've been in for more than one year is the Art Club, whereas I recently joined the other clubs. In the additional comments section, would I have to write down why I joined these clubs my final year and how they're really new? Two of the clubs began last year, but I was pretty apprehensive about joining them since I wasn't sure if it would develop well (since a lot of the clubs in my school tend to die out, and I wanted to be a part of something that would be very active). </p>
<p>It stinks because I've taken part in majority of the clubs I've joined, for a year. I wish these clubs would've been developed earlier. But ya, I read somewhere that one shouldn't give excuses on the application for why they couldn't do something. They want you to write about what you've accomplished and how did you get around the problem. </p>
<p>So, Im tangled up...I don't know what to write about my ECs. </p>
<p>I've been in Art Club, and won a lot of awards, so hopefully that will show my dedication to artistic development and such. </p>
<p>Also, when I have to describe the other courses beside A-G ones, do I write about what the course is like (the material covered + lab), or the class?</p>
<p>annddd (final question, i promise) - on the 'previous college' part of the application, do I write about my dual enrollment courses, or do I leave that part of the application blank, since Im technically a freshman applying.</p>
