<p>Keep doing crew...consistency is big. And try to win some state awards, awards show that you are trying in your activities/that you can do well in things.
1-10 = nothing-cured cancer</p>

<p>I would give yours...a 3. That's if you have no awards though.</p>

<p>You have no leadership, and need some. But don't just think about being a president of a club. If you can, great. But starting an initiative may sound better, Within Key Club, can you start a new initiative? Do a special one-time only event or fund raiser? Combine crew or another EC with community service- for example, get crew to do something to raise money for a cause or do an event of some kind. I've seen this sort of thing work.</p>

<p>Wow, really? I know so many students who have done like a sport and nothing else and think they're the best at EC's... this doesnt mean I dont agree with you guys or anything. I guess this summer, I'll look for those one time or weekly community events... hopefully award giving ones... would that help?</p>

<p>It all depends what colleges you looking at, on here I (and I think alot of people) am assuming people want to get into top 30 school. Your's ec's are lacking for them, but for other colleges they are good (keep in mind i'm also a high schooler and this is just what I know from my super competitive classmates and ed posts for ivy people on here).</p>
