<p>ok so i am at the summer between my junior and senior year, i have never had a paid job before.
i have done multiple volunteer jobs for many different kinds or organiztions but i never had a job like mcdonalds or sumthing like that.
do colleges really care that much about job experience?</p>
<p>No... Not really, as long as you're spending your time doing other useful activities and not playing video games all day.</p>
<p>If you do volunteering, that's usually just as good. But having both is even better.</p>
<p>thats the problem, i am sorta taking a full time SAT prep course right now, see english is my second language and my repertoire or vocabs is not high and i haven't read all the prose normal americans do.
i would have nothing under this summer. nothing i can write to colleges at least
i have one volunteering job at the town hall but that is far from being able to fill the space</p>
<p>Focus on your english vocab and rep. itll pay off</p>
<p>Having a job usually has the same significance as location and the interview in admissions.</p>
<p>It's not a problem.</p>
