[quote=Anonymous]My DD is starting her junior year in HS. We have slowly started the college search - thinking about fit, visiting a few campuses, etc. She had a difficult transition into high school from middle school and currently has a solid B average. However, she needs to bring it up to be more competitive at some of the colleges she is thinking of. My concern is her ability to do this while also playing a sport, holding down a part-time job, etc. She has done a variety of activities, but none seems to light her passion other than a young entrepreneurs program she participated in at GMU. She and her team deceived the winning idea for the district level competition but lost the regional. She is still interested in developing the idea further even without her team. My question is if she is light on a plethora of ECs, but ardent about one how does that play with admissions committees. I don't want her checking boxes just to check boxes, but to accomplish something. [/quote]
