Please rate my EC's

Applying to College

So here are the 10 extracurricular activities I plan on putting down on the common app. I plan on being an engineer. You can give me a rating of 1 (these are terrible) to 10 (these are amazing) or just give me general comments. Thank you.

  1. 4 years Varsity soccer , 3 years starter, possible senior year captain
  2. 7 years club soccer (practice about 2 times a week plus game or tournament on weekend). Team consistently around third best in the state.
  3. 10 years piano, recital every 6 months.
  4. 4 years varsity tennis, hopefully captain junior and senior year
  5. Started a sports club at school junior year
  6. Worked at a camp for kids for two weeks every summer that directly relates to my major
  7. Had internship for two weeks where I researched old innovations
  8. Youth leadership thing where I did science stuff with kids (2 years)
  9. co-started youtube channel (mostly soccer stuff) with over 1000 subscribers
  10. 3 years with club that makes giant catapults (11). If I can, I will do a summer camp relating to my major next summer and I would probably put it on the list

I think these are good ECs, there is certainly some leadership, but nothing really unique that I think would immediately grab an admission officer’s attention. My rating is about a 6, maybe a 7.

@yonceonhismouth thanks, I know they aren’t fantastic, but I have no B’s or C’s and decent test scores so I really just didn’t my ECs to hurt me

They definitely won’t hurt you, IMO.

Most engineering schools (even very good ones) won’t evaluate you on your ECs. If you’re grades and scores are great (sounds like they are), you’ll have many options. Heck, when we were at a Purdue info session, the presenter said half-jokingly that they only recently even started accepting essays – they had no problem admitting tons of great kids previously w/o that.
