Would you count this as an Extracurricular?

<p>I don’t have much extracurriculars, but I was wondering if making Youtube Videos would be an extracurricular? I usually make game tutorial videos and electronic help videos</p>

<p>Since I would discourage students from listing video game playing as extracurricular activities, I would discourage you from listing making YouTube videos of you playing video games as extracurricular activities.</p>

<p>Most UCs are academic achievement oriented. While all will expect some form of extracurricular activities, it’s doubtful that adding YouTube video making is going to get you accepted.</p>
