which sport to join

<p>can track or baseball. pick one. which one will you be better off to get into an ivy?</p>

<p>Track, unless you are at baseball. Anyone can do track and if you want to so good, all you can to do is practice a lot. Baseball has more to do with skill.</p>

<p>Um, getting into a D1 school in any sport is going to be ridiculously hard. If you can’t bat .300+ through HS/throw an 80mph fastball and totally rock travel, colleges probably won’t look at you. For track, I runners have to be very consistent. A friend of mine got a full ride to Syracuse, he runs a 24-min 8k, which is FAST. That’s just to give you an idea for runners. For other track and field events, I’m not really all that sure how competitive it is, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that if you can’t smoke competition in HS you aren’t going to get recruited to a D1 or Ivy League school </p>

<p>Just my 2¢ :)</p>

<p>Basing your decision of what sport to play on which one is more likely to get you into an Ivy is plain stupid. In order to be recruited for a D1 sport, you have to be amazing, which generally requires committing absurd amounts of time to it; you therefore want to choose a sport that you are passionate about and would love playing.</p>

<p>Whichever one you enjoy the most.</p>

<p>The one you’re extremely good at. If you’re not extremely good at either, neither’s going to get you recruited, and they’re both about the same as far as general value as an extracurricular.</p>

<p>“which one will you be better off to get into an ivy?”</p>

<p>wrong mentality. Do whichever you enjoy more.</p>
