<p>Right now, I'm a high school freshman. Considering that I plan on being pre-med and my dream college is Rice University(2nd choice: Boston U).
What would look better on my applications? 3 years of Yearbook or 3 years of Marching Band?
(I can't do both b/c I would have too many classes in my schedule.)</p>
<p>Really, just do whatever you would enjoy more.</p>
<p>Also think about which program has the stronger leadership, where you are likely to learn more.</p>
<p>well, there’s more opportunity to go for yearbook editor in the future, but the band director is making an exception for me and I might be able to be squad leader for band…</p>
<p>Enjoy your high school years. Have fun. Do the activities you WANT to do rather than performing for some future college admissions counselor.</p>
<p>Aiming primarily for the future = missing out on the joys of today. </p>
<p>Following your interests now = a happier and more whole person by the time you graduate.</p>
