<p>I can smell the pretentiousness of underclassrmen trying to one up each other…</p>
<p>C’mon now, seriously?</p>
<p>That’s 95% of this website. The other 5% is helicopter parents trying to one-up each other.</p>
<p>The “rate my schedule” thread is probably worse. There’s like 200 pages of it.</p>
<p>I like to party.</p>

<p>I don’t see how this thread is helpful. Aren’t you all uncomfortable posting detailed informations about your extracurriculars online? Especially if you’ve won awards and stuff. Too much identifying information for me.</p>

<p>That’s definitely a 9 or 10, wow.</p>
<p>I’m a rising junior.</p>
<p>Freshman year:
- Student government representative
- Gay-Straight Alliance, ASPIRA (Hispanic community service club)
- Co-wrote and co-directed an original student-produced musical, also played a lead role in it
- Spring musical, minor role
- Participated in school choir
- Part of freshman math team for the first semester
- ~10 hours of community service helping a teacher
- ~5 hours ushering at school events</p>
<p>Sophomore year:
- Student government representative
- Fall play, supporting role
- Co-wrote and co-directed another original student-produced musical
- Spring musical, minor role
- Participated in school choir
- ~15 hours of community service at short movie screenings
- ~5 hours ushering at school events</p>
<p>(Plans)
Junior year:
- Fall play, most likely another supporting role
- Co-wrote and co-composed yet another original student-produced musical (already in progress), co-president of the entire production
- Spring musical, most likely a minor role
- Participated in school newspaper
- Part of National Honor Society (beginning in second semester)
- Co-pioneered an a capella club for the first semester</p>
<p>Senior year:
- Running for student body vice-president, though likelihood is 50/50.
- Fall play, most likely a larger role
- Co-wrote and co-directed one more original student-produced musical, co-president of the entire production
- Spring musical, most likely a supporting role
- Participated in school newspaper, aiming for editor-in-chief (pretty likely, if not some leadership position)
- Part of National Honor Society
- Part of a Physical Science Journal (a school publication all about chemistry and physics)</p>
<p>There will probably be some more scattered community service junior and senior year. The requirement for being in the Honors Society is at least 20 hours of community service per semester, which will probably be spent doing math tutoring.</p>
<p>I plan on doing something related to theater/the arts as well as something STEM-related (probably just straight-up math).</p>
