[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP it is not too late for your child to start up some ECs. They also have the whole summer to do something interesting. The key is to pick one or two activities that align with the student's preferred major. Maybe your child could ask around to do unpaid work for a nonprofit or small business, or tutor younger students, or write some articles about a topic of interest. Something to show more of their depth and engagement with a community outside of just their high school academic community. [/quote] The EC thing is an ongoing battle. Kid just doesn’t want to get involved in more than 1-2 of them that hard involve any programming. But kid does have loads of SSL hours. No sports, music, honors societies, etc. [/quote] Depth is valued as much, if not more than breadth. [/quote]
