<p>I know that it is your level of commitment to each activity that matters and not the amount of activities, but I have not even started my junior year and this is what I have so far... Do you think I should cut any out?
<em>I have no idea what I want to study in college so I'm trying to keep my options open with these.
1) robotics (business) Secretary</em> 9-12 (5-15 hrs/wk)
2)cedars Sinai (medical) Volunteer 11-12 (5hrs/wk)
3)grief counseling center (psychology) Teen Counselor 11-12 (3hrs/every other week)
4)interact club (volunteering) Media Head* 9-12 (3 hrs/wk)
5)red cross club (volunteering) Co President* 9-12 (3 hrs/wk)
6)science club (Science and journalism) President and Editor* 10-12 (2-10 hrs/wk)
7)viola 9-12 (self practicing whenever I have the time)
8)travel blog (documenting trips I have/will take) 10-12 (1 hr/wk)
I was also thinking about joining my school's academic decathlon team to beef up my schedule next year... Suggestions?</p>
<p>Speaking as somebody with a ton of ECs…</p>
<p>If you enjoy them and your time commitment to them does not have a negative impact on your grades then stick with them. Though don’t do ECs to impress colleges, do them because you enjoy them. Also I would not take on any more ECs…</p>
<p>Ahhhh, thanks 
Any other suggestions… should I cut any?
I was thing either cedars or grief counselling bc i cant get a leadership role with those… but cedars os right next to my house and the grief counselling seems like something many other ppl wont have.</p>
<p>Def keep grief counseling it looks impressive. The Red Cross you should keep too because its related to your science interest as is evident through your other clubs.
I guess cut viola if you don’t have the time.</p>
<p>P.S. How did you find that grief counseling position? Is that hard to get? (I wanna major in neuro/psych so I think thats really cool)</p>
<p>@elnamoI actually used to go there for personal reasons (and so did all of the other teen volunteers)…I think of you have a genuine interest in helping the kids that they will take you. Thanks and good luck!</p>
