[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I am most confused about is what types of activities she should be doing. Academically she does very well, she is a straight A student, but she is not a musician and doesn't play sports and we are afraid that this will hurt her. Recently I heard that colleges don't really care about National Honor Society, which I had thought was a significant honor. I just feel so clueless and guilty about not having the knowledge needed to advise her. [/quote] Does she have any activities? And what year is she? NHS is nice, but it will be more appealing to colleges if she did something with it. For example, if she tutors students, that's great, but if she just showed up for the ceremony, it's not that appealing. She should pick one or two activities that she's REALLY interested in, and do them to the highest degree possible. Also, I completely agree about going and getting a book from the library. [/quote]
