Problems with ECs

Applying to College
1

<p>i have somewhat of a problem with my extra curricular activities. i'm going to be a junior next year. my problem is that although i'm doing lots of extra curricular activities that i really enjoy and care a lot about, they are all so different that i'm afraid college admissions officers will think that i don't have a clear goal or passion.</p>

<p>my ECs are</p>

<p>marching band (4 years) - probably officer 12th grade
varsity swimming (4 years) - slight chance at captain 12th grade (not good enough to be recruited)
science olympiad (4 years) - total of 9 medals (regional and state level) over the last 2 years (18 medals over the last 4 years but that's including middle school)
science league (10,11,12)
science bowl (11,12)
founder, president of JSA at my school
volunteer work - hospital, library (common i know..)</p>

<p>do you think college admissions officers would have a problem with the fact that my activities are so diverse? any suggestions for what i should do?</p>

<p>It's okay to be multi-faceted and explore your many talents and interests. Adcoms understand that your goals aren't set in stone yet. Not everyone knows what they want to do in life by the time they're 15 and starting their ECs. The good thing is that you stuck with your activities, showing that you're dedicated and not wishy-washy. That in itself shows passion.</p>
