<p>^^^Maybe I’m misinformed, but I do think that most colleges prefer to see 1-3 activities where the kids are very involved rather than a lot of scattered involvement. My Dd basically had Newspaper EIC, some writing awards and her sport, and did very well in admissions. Ds had Scouts, a lot of outdoor leadership, school leadership and work experience, and also did well. Neither kid participated in anything (except chores at home) that they weren’t interested in doing for its own sake. Dd was “passionate” about her sport and writing. Ds was a very cool character- I wouldn’t describe him as the passionate type, but still very dedicated to his interests.</p>
