[quote=Anonymous]My kid started to play instrument since she was 10, and has always been in band. She is in symphonic, jazz and marching band (it is required by FCPS if you are in symphonic band). She is a senior now and working on her application. She started to complain about her GPA which is lower than her friends because band is a 4.0 class, not honor (4.5) or AP (5.0). Also those rehearsals and trips almost took up her entire time and she didn't have any time to do other actives like debate, etc. Band is a group activity not like debate which is an individual one. The awards are all group awards, and don't look as good as other individual ones. My question is if band experience will help her college application. please share your experience. thanks[/quote]
