What should I do in the summer?

<p>Many people doing some college program over the summer but I don't find those lessons useful. Most of the times, they cost thousands as well.</p>

<p>I'm a junior now.</p>

<p>My current schedule is to volunteer couple days a week and work on the weekends but I don't know what else to fill my schedule with. I have been lazy the past summers and haven't really achieved anything major in terms of awards or competitions. </p>

<p>What should I do? Go to a college summer program, continue what I'm planning to do, or stack on more extra-curricular activities?</p>

<p>I think what you are planning to do sounds good. Volunteer with an organization or for a cause that you are really passionate about and can devote a lot of time to. Same goes for a job There is no need to go to a college summer program, why go to school in the summer? Do something that is productive, but also something you will enjoy.</p>
